Thanks!

    I do pay for Microsoft Windows 365 and for Office. I shouldn't have to look at the AdChoices, right? How do I disable them as a paying customer?

    That didn't work for me.

    I am also having this problem and I cannot find the box you describe.

    It is not on my outlook toolbar.

    These ads are blocking my e-mail and I cannot read them even when I double click them.

    While I appreciate the free e-mail service. I know it is supported by ads.

    The problem is this particular ad bar from adchoices blocks my ability to read e-mails, making your service useless.

    Did you do this on purpose to force people to pay for the e-mail service?

    If not, please provide a solution.

    Hi,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you encounter this issue on a specific machine with browsers Chrome and IE, let me give you ample assistance. Basically, these Ads is a part of Outlook.com as a free service. We currently don't have the feature to disable or hide these ad. If you are not encountering this issue on other machines, it is possible that these machines has ad blockers installed in them.

    If you want, you can upgrade your account to Ad-free Outlook.com so that ads will not appear when you access your account. To learn more about this, refer to the link below:

    Ad-free Outlook.com

    Feel free to ask should you have more questions.

    Thank you
