It works!! I have been trying to find an adblocker for Edge for a long time, and all I found were "free trials", malicious BAT files...I just couldnt find a working adblocker! I recently discovered this store. I downloaded this and it just clicked. It did pop up a thank you page once I installed it, however it didnt affect me much--plus, it gave me a chance to test out this adblocker! And it WORKED! Thank you!
