Hi there! I understand that your Total Adblock is stopping unexpectedly and you need to manually turn it back on. Let’s see if we can sort this out together.
Could you let me know if you've noticed this happening on specific websites or if it happens across all sites? Also, have you tried any troubleshooting steps so far, like checking your settings or updating the app?
Thanks for the additional details! Since the issue occurs across all websites and even in apps you've not used before, let's try a few steps to see if we can resolve this.
1. Check Total Adblock Settings: - Open the Total Adblock app. - Look for a section called “Settings” or “Preferences.” - Ensure that the ad-blocking feature is enabled. Sometimes, certain options for blocking ads might be set to a less aggressive mode, so increasing the level of blocking may help.
2. Clear Cache: - Go to your device's Settings. - Tap on Apps and find Total Adblock. - Select Storage, then tap on Clear Cache. This could resolve any temporary issues.
3. Reinstall Total Adblock: - Sometimes a fresh install can cure persistent issues. - Uninstall the app by going to Settings > Apps > Total Adblock > Uninstall. - After that, reinstall it from the Google Play Store.
4. Check App Permissions: - Go to Settings > Apps > Total Adblock > Permissions. - Make sure it has the necessary permissions to function properly, including any permissions that might be blocking ads from certain apps.
5. Check for Updates: - Ensure that both your Total Adblock and your device’s system software are updated to the latest versions. This can often fix bugs and improve performance.
If none of these steps help, please let me know, and we can look into more advanced troubleshooting options or escalate the issue if needed.
Let me check further details for you. This issue of your Total Adblock stopping automatically can stem from various factors. Here are a few common reasons and potential solutions that might help:
1. Corrupted Data: Sometimes, app settings or data can get corrupted, leading to the application not maintaining its state. You might consider uninstalling and reinstalling Total Adblock, as previously discussed.
2. Interference from Other Apps: Certain apps can conflict with ad blockers. Make sure no other security or ad-blocking apps are running that may disable Total Adblock.
3. Browser Issues: If you're using Total Adblock specifically in a browser, ensure that your browser is updated to the latest version, as outdated browsers can lead to compatibility issues.
4. Background Restrictions: Check your battery optimization settings. Sometimes, if the app is restricted in the background, it may not function properly. Go to Settings > Apps > Total Adblock > Battery > and ensure you allow it to run in the background.
5. Account Issues: If you’re logged out of your Total Adblock account, it may not function correctly. Ensure you are signed in and check your subscription status.
6. External sources hint: There are reports where ad blockers tend to disable themselves due to competing processes within the device. You can check similar experiences in forums like this one.
After trying these suggestions, let me know if the problem continues, and we can further explore the issue together! Are you satisfied with the solution I provided?

Yes it is everywhere. Even an app I've not used before. No I have not tried any measures except turning it on again.
