How To Disable The Pop-Up Blocker In Google Chrome – SlashGear

When it comes to disabling or enabling Chrome’s built-in pop-up blocker, you have two general options: turn the entire thing off by changing the browser’s default settings or add pop-up blocker exceptions for certain websites. If you want to disable Chrome’s pop-up blocker on a specific website, follow these instructions:

SlashGear

1. Open Chrome.

2. Go to the website where you want to disable the pop-up blocker.

3. Look for the red X that appears in the address bar when a pop-up is blocked.

4. Click the red X icon.

5. Click the link that appears to see the pop-up that was blocked.

6. Click on “Always allow pop-ups and redirects” to disable the pop-up blocker for that website.

If the red X icon doesn’t appear, you can instead click the lock icon in the address bar, then turn on the toggle next to “Allow pop-ups and redirects” to turn off the pop-up blocker for that specific website. If you’d prefer to turn off Chrome’s pop-up blocker altogether, follow these instructions:

SlashGear

1. Open Chrome.

2. Click on the triple-dot More menu in the top-right corner of the browser.

3. Select Settings.

4. Click the Privacy and Security option in the left sidebar.

5. Click on Site Settings.

6. Click the “Pop-ups and redirects” menu.

7. Check the “Sites can send pop-ups and use redirects” option.

You can re-enable the blocker from the Pop-ups and redirects menu. You can also use that same menu to remove pop-up permissions you’ve given to individual sites.
