Does your Android device suddenly have annoying pop-up ads

I had this happen  to me and after searching online couldn't find a solution any where to disable this annoying issue.

I finally found it myself and decided to share it

Solution 1:
1. Go to Settings on the phone
2. Select the Apps section
3. Find Chrome
4. Scroll down and turn off Apps that can appear on Top and Apps that can change System Settings and turn them off as shown.


If the above fails do the following

Solution 2:
The other option is to Disable Chrome and Google and then download Firefox
1. Go in to the Apps Section 
2. Select Chrome and disable it will giving you warning that Apps might not work that is
fine
3. Click the Disable button
Screens shown below it is shows first as Enabled


Click the Disable option again the phone will still work fine. Some some Google features will not work but it can always re-enable and disable.  I tested and you can't add a gmail mail account



*** Some some Google features will not work but it can always re-enable and disable.  I tested and you can't add a gmail mail account ***

Repeat the steps for Google itself

*** Some some Google features will not work but it can always re-enable and disable.  I tested and you can't add a gmail mail account ***

Melanie (The Hot and Sexy Creatress in my life)

Where to start with my amazing wife I can't say enough about the lady I chose to share my life with.
She is talented and very wonderful person who I am extremely happy to be sharing my life with.

My wife is on a life changing journey.  She has quit her job as a teacher and is go to start teaching out of our house and perusing her dreams-to become and Artist and Art Teacher on her own terms.  She spent 8 weeks at the Haliburton School of the Arts taking a course to become an Expressive Arts Practitioner.

We are working together to turn the basement in to a Studio and Teaching room.

I am proud of her and support her on this journey.
