Twitch Ads After Fresh Windows 10 Install

[BiscuitZero]

Hello all,

I smashed a fresh copy of Windows 10 on my machine this week and since then Twitch has started showing the 30 second ads you normally get when viewing streams on mobile. It's not a deal breaker I guess, just puzzling.

Chrome is my browser. I did not have these ads previously on my Windows 7 OS, and I've never used Adblocker, (never needed to). I'm signed into Twitch, (though not a member of Twitch Prime).

I understand Twitch has initiated the rollout of SureStream but I find it a little too coincidental before my Windows 10 install I didn't have these ads at all, and now every stream I load has them.

Have I just been fortunate with some older Cookies/cache sat on my old Windows 7 installation? Also tried reinstalling Chrome, to no avail.

Any further ideas would be most welcome. Much obliged.

Install Ublock Origin and you will never see ads again.

Install Ublock Origin and you will never see ads again.

+ 1 Also you can install this addition https://reek.github.io/anti-adblock-killer/

This helps against the sites that trigger when you have adblocker enabled.

Twitch always had ads on their streams since well, they started. Always had to use an adblocker to block them, sure you didn't have one installed before?

Twitch is also now doing ads you cannot dodge by stuffing it in the stream in a way that blockers cant see.
