Non-functioning Adblock

[retro60]

I installed Adblock a long time ago and until a month ago it was working fine and suddenly stopped I tried to reinstall it but was told that it was already installed but it does not show up in my programs list, I am now plagued with ads that are driving me nuts what do I do

-you are talking about adblock plus I hope (not adware ... I corrected ...)
-what's your opera version ?
-if you go into the extensions page do you see adblock there ?

[retro60]

Yes it is in my extensions page and is enabled but nothing on options, and the logo is on the right of the menu bar but there is no writing on it.

-opera version ?
-upload screenshots (1 with the extensions page, 1 with the extension icon, options). USe imgur.com for uploading the pics and post here the links

[retro60]

Latest Opera but I cannot take screen shots I do not have that option, tried snippet tool but that did not work either, the drop down list for APB is blank and does not show any writing ie ads blocked as it did before

-scan your system for malware / adware
use malwarebytes antimalware ==> http://filehippo.com/download_malwarebytes_anti_malware
and adwcleaner http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/A ... 12632.html
-reset opera ==> http://winaero.com/blog/how-to-reset-op ... -defaults/
-reinstall ABP

I have tried cleaners and I do not understand how to delete profile and cache where from? I cannot intal adblock because it tells me it already installed ebven though it is no longer on my program list I would have done this but I am blocked

-to reset opera ==> see the link I provided above
-program list ? ==> it's an extension in your opera, see there

[retro60]

I am very confused I have tried to follow your instruction to delete cache and profile but every time I close opera I lose the page I still have no adblock and I cannot uninstall to reinstall there is definitely something more than I can understand

try removing opera, delete manually the profile folders, reinstall opera and ABP
