Troubleshooting the Adblocker Warning

Written By Flightsim.to

Last updated 2 months ago

If you’re seeing a message asking you to turn off your adblocker — even though you think you don’t have one enabled — don’t worry. This can happen for several reasons, and it’s usually easy to fix. Below are the most common causes and simple steps to resolve the issue.

Flightsim.to relies heavily on advertising revenue to keep our platform online and free for everyone. Ads help us cover our server costs, development, and continuous improvements. By allowing ads, you directly support the community and help keep the site running. If you prefer an ad-free experience, you can upgrade to Flightsim.to Premium at any time — it removes all ads and supports us even more.

Check Your Browser Extensions

Many browser extensions block ads, even if they’re not specifically called “Adblocker”.
Please check if you use any of the following:

  • uBlock Origin, AdBlock, Adblock Plus

  • Ghostery

  • Privacy Badger

  • DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials

  • NoScript, ScriptSafe

  • Built-in blockers in Brave Browser (Brave Shields) or Opera (Built-in adblocker)

uBlock Origin

  3. Refresh the page.

AdBlock / Adblock Plus

Check Your Browser’s Tracking Protection Settings

Some browsers block advertising scripts even with no extension installed. Try lowering protection to Standard mode:

  • Firefox: Click the shield icon, then Turn off Enhanced Tracking Protection for Flightsim.to.

  • Edge: Settings → Privacy → Set Tracking Prevention to Balanced.

  • Safari: Safari → Settings → Privacy → Uncheck Prevent cross-site tracking (if necessary).

Check Antivirus, VPN or Security Software

Some antivirus tools include their own ad blockers. If you use any of these, temporarily disable ad blocking, web protection or tracking protection. Then refresh the website.

Test in a Private/Incognito Window or Different Browser

Open Flightsim.to in Chrome/Edge, Firefox or Safari. If the message disappears, it means an extension or browser setting is blocking something in normal mode.
