      hello
      when I search for a product, I have "sponsored links" under my search bar.
      but when I click on it each time it is blocked and the window that opens always has an address starting with "https://www.googleadservices.com".

      how can I make these links active?

      to be able to consult the links, I have to do:
      right click
      copy the link
      and paste it into another browser (brave or chrome)

      I attach 2 screenshots

      thanks

                @nefast27 Do you use DOH? If so, try changing the provider or even disable it.

                      @nefast27 DOH is DNS Over HTTPS we were talking about it in the previous reply.

                      And since the image you posted says that the problem is with the DNS, checking DOH sounded reasonable.

                          @leocg i posted a screenshot ,this is my set up.
                          i don't thnik that "says that the problem".

                          sorry but i don't understant all you mean.
                          the answer are too short and not very explicit.

                          and with translate i know it's not correct all time.
                          sometimes nuances are not taken into account with google translate

                            @nefast27 The image with the page saying that the site is not accessible says that the problem was with the DNS, the DNS provider wasn't able to find the site's IP address.

                            The error page even tells you to check DNS Over HTTPS settings and how to find them.

                              @leocg ah yeah
                              thanks
                              indeed it works, I did as indicated in the error screenshot.
                              I admit that I had not read what was written because:
                              1> it is in English (while I am in France and my system is in French) so it is always ridiculous to have errors in another language
                              2> generally it is not much use to read these things.

                              in any case I have just tested and it works.

                              thank you for your last explanations, as said above, it is not easy when it comes to translating and I did not understand where you were going with this.

                              all is ok,we can close

                              THX another time 👍
