ATTENTION

[!NOTE]
YouTube changes their detection scripts regularly. That means that sometime you can face the detection message. If all the following instructions do not work, please email filters@adguard.com or wait until any update is available.

[!CAUTION] Please do not use another adblocker in the same time because using another adblocker can delay/lags the YouTube loading (e.g., AdBlock Plus and AdBlock)^1 OR interfere AdGuard's filtering functionality.

[!CAUTION] Please do not use an userscript related to the bypassing YouTube detection message like TheRealJoelmatic/RemoveAdblockThing. Recently, YouTube anti-adblock script added infinite dummy advertisements to try to neutralize the userscript. ( TheRealJoelmatic/RemoveAdblockThing#264 )

[!WARNING] Please check that there no another web browser extension that has adblocking feature is enabled on your web browser. It can interfere AdGuard's filtering functionality.

[!IMPORTANT]
Saving memory feature of your web browser or sleep feature of your operating system can interfere AdGuard's filtering functionality. In this case, please re-enable AdGuard's filtering by toggling the protection toggle. Following the instructions can be needed.

The instructions

1. Force to update the filters by clicking the reload button in AdGuard Browser Extension/AdGuard mobile or update tray menu in your system tray. [^2]
2. Reload the YouTube webpage without cache by pressing Ctrl + Shift + R [^3].
3. Clear cache, cookies and site data of your web browser.
4. Re-open your web browser completely (checking your system monitor[^4] will be better).

[^2]: AdGuard for Windows; AdGuard for Mac; [^3]: On macOS, Command + Shift + R [^4]: Task Manager on Windows, System Monitor on GNOME Shell, KDE System Guard on KDE Plasma or Activity Monitor on macOS.
