# Pop-Up Ads in the Corner of Your Screen? How to Stop Website Notifications

Those corner pop-ups are usually website notifications someone allowed by accident. In Chrome or Edge settings, open Site permissions › Notifications, remove sites you don’t recognize, and block new requests.

Also searched as: stop Chrome notification pop-ups · virus alert pop-up bottom right · remove notification spam · pop-ups on desktop Windows 11

- **Starting price:** From $125

- **Where:** Remote, anywhere in the U.S.

- **Quote:** Fixed price before work starts

## Try this first

- Open the browser’s notification settings
- Remove or block sites you don’t recognize
- Turn off “Sites can ask to send notifications” if you don’t need it
- Remove unknown extensions
- Never call a phone number shown in a pop-up
- Run a Microsoft Defender scan if pop-ups continue

Common causes

- Clicking “Allow” on a site that asked to send notifications
- Fake “click Allow to prove you’re not a robot” pages
- Adware extensions
- Scam sites showing fake virus warnings

## When it’s more than a quick fix

If a pop-up says your computer is infected and shows a phone number, it’s a scam. Don’t call; if you already did, have the computer checked.
