Hello,

  • F-Secure Total new version 19.3 , I see : "You can switch off Ad blocker for a specific website. To switch off Ad blocker, select the Browsing Protection by F-Secure icon in the browser toolbar and then select Ad blocker is on."
  • I don't see where and how I can do this.

    Hi ClaudeD :)

    Make sure you have the Browser extensions enable in the main, desktop app. Tick on the Secure Browsing panel/Open then under Tools, click on Install browser extensions and click the link for the supported browser. Once installed, make sure you unhide it from the Extension icon. It should then look like this when you go to a webpage and left click the icon.

    Did that help, and work for you?

    Hello,

    I usually use Edge but I also tried on Chrome and Firefox, the problem is the same.

    I use F-Secure Total in the French version. It would probably be necessary update the extension (currently my extension is 5.2.36 version)

    Other people have the same problem.

    Hello,

    On the purchase page, it clearly says "devices” and not “users”.

    Hi @ClaudeD

    The feature that allows you to disable the Ad Blocker on individual sites is currently being tested only in beta versions. In addition, as of today it is only active for the Chrome browser. Soon it should also be tested on Edge.

    Therefore, if you do not have a beta version, this feature will not be active with you. It will only be implemented in the public version once it has passed the tests and the results are positive. 

    I hope this information will be helpful.

    Thanks, but I don't understand.

    I got version 19.3 automatically. It is therefore not a beta.

    See: What's new in the F-Secure app - F-Secure Community

    In the new features, we can read:

    "F-Secure Total new version 19.3 , I see : 

    "You can switch off Ad blocker for a specific website. To switch off Ad blocker, select the Browsing Protection by F-Secure icon in the browser toolbar and then select Ad blocker is on."

    The extension does not present the possibility of choice, even in Chrome.

    Hi,

    We found a bug just before the release and had to make a new version that goes through our beta cycle first. We aim to push out the new version to Chrome and Firefox this week, and Edge next week. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Thank you for these clarifications, so all we have to do is wait for the corrected version.

    Hello,

    Thanks but what works now is the choice to disable the AdBlocker extension for particular sites.
