1. Why does Chrome block pop-ups by default?
Chrome actively blocks pop-ups to prevent spam, mass phishing, and potentially harmful adware from compromising the machine’s security or causing poor performance.
2. Can I allow pop-ups for one site only?
Of course. The quickest way is to enable the pop-up and redirect permission rule for this site in the list, or you can select ‘Always allow’ per individual prompt.
3. Do I need to restart Chrome after changing pop-up settings?
Generally, changing pop-up settings doesn’t require a restart; however, a restart ensures the completion of all new changes and permissions.
4. Why are pop-ups still not showing after enabling them?
First, call all ad-blockers, third-party blockers, or antivirus tools that might conflict with Chrome’s settings.
5. Are pop-ups safe to use?
The use of pop-ups is allowed as long as you stay on the safe side, that is, on the trusted websites.
