Troubleshooting website display or functionality issues in Edge on Windows 10

Just finished with MS Technical Support chat today, after trying to find issue yesterday as well. The answer I got was that its certain websites generating the ad, even though it only occurs on Edge and no other web browser. It was made clear it's not a MS generated ad, but a website sourced ad.
A recommendation was made to identify the website when it occurs and block those sites in Edge settings.
These same possibly-malicious fullscreen McDonald's ads that keep appearing in Chrome, too, so this is not just an Edge problem. I don't even use Edge and came here because I was searching for a solution to this.
These same ads are certainly a problem in Chrome, as well as Edge. I've only begun noticing them recently, in Chrome on WIndows and Android.
Since I don't use Chrome much, I haven't seen it elsewhere. Until today! I often use Opera to avoid the annoying glut of ads on most websites and then it popped up today on a website in that browser. So, there it is, seems no web browser is immune from this McDonalds ad infestation.
Chrome and Firefox do it, too
