+
+This article describes AdGuard for Windows v8.0, a comprehensive ad blocker that protects your device at the system level.
+
+This is a beta release and still under development. If you’d like to try it, download the [beta version of AdGuard for Windows](https://agrd.io/windows_beta).
+
+:::
+
+AdGuard for Windows is an easy-to-use tool that blocks annoying banners, popups, video ads, and trackers. But that’s not all: it helps you save traffic, load web pages faster, and protect your computer from undesirable and potentially malicious websites. AdGuard also protects you from phishing websites and keeps your kids away from inappropriate content.
+
+## [Home screen](/adguard-for-windows-8/home-screen/)
+
+A toggle to enable or disable AdGuard protection, along with icons for activating *Ad blocking*, *Tracking protection*, *DNS protection*, and *Annoyance blocking*. Settings can be accessed through the left-side menu.
+
+## [Protection](/adguard-for-windows-8/protection/)

+This is a beta release and still under development. If you’d like to try it, download the [beta version of AdGuard for Windows](https://agrd.io/windows_beta).
+
+:::
+
+In the *App management* section, you can manage routing and filtering settings for all apps installed on your device.
+
+Once AdGuard detects that an app has gone online, it is automatically added to *App management*, and its traffic is routed through AdGuard.
+
+By default, AdGuard filters all traffic, but you can choose what to exclude.
+
+AdGuard also filters HTTPS traffic, as most websites today use HTTPS. This is especially important for blocking ads on sites like youtube.com, facebook.com, and x.com, where it is impossible to remove ads without HTTPS filtering.
+
+When routing and filtering are enabled for an app, the icons below each app will appear green.
+
+![App management *border](https://cdn.adtidy.org/content/kb/ad_blocker/windows/app_management/app_management.png)
+
+You can leave the settings as they are, disable both filtering and routing, or fine-tune them manually for each app. You can also access the app’s stats.
+
+![App settings *border](https://cdn.adtidy.org/content/kb/ad_blocker/windows/app_management/app_settings.png)
+
+## “Problem-free” and “problematic” apps
+
+Most apps work correctly when filtered. Some apps are considered “problematic” and may not work correctly when routed through AdGuard. You may see a warning like this when trying to route or filter all apps:
+
+![Warning *border](https://cdn.adtidy.org/content/kb/ad_blocker/windows/app_management/route_all.png)
+
+To ensure the proper operation of all apps installed on your device, we recommend routing only problem-free apps through AdGuard.

To filter banners, popups, trackers, and other intrusive elements, AdGuard relies on filters — sets of rules written in a [special syntax](/general/ad-filtering/create-own-filters). If you’d like to learn more about how they work, read our [article about filters](/general/ad-filtering/how-ad-blocking-works).

+- disable ads in the Start menu on Windows 11,
+- enable automatic activation of language-specific filters
+- manage user rules.
+
+You can also open the *Filtering log* to view all requests made by browsers and apps on your computer. From there, it’s easy to block or unblock any request by creating a custom rule. In the *Filter editor*, you can create, add, and import your own rules and filters.

+
+DNS protection gives you more control over how your device connects to the Internet. There are three main reasons why it can be useful:
+
+## 1. Protect your privacy from your ISP
+
+Every time you open a website, for example `google.com`, your browser sends a request to a DNS server to get the IP address of the website in return. Usually, the DNS server belongs to your ISP, which means they can track the websites you visit. If you switch to another DNS server, such as AdGuard DNS, your ISP no longer sees your online activity.
+
+## 2. Encrypt your DNS traffic
+
+Modern protocols like DNS-over-TLS and DNS-over-HTTPS ensure that your DNS requests are encrypted. This protects them from being intercepted, modified, or spied on by attackers.
+
+## 3. Block unwanted content at the DNS level
+
+DNS protection can filter out ads, trackers, phishing websites, and other harmful or annoying content before it even loads in your browser or apps. [Learn more about DNS filtering](https://adguard-dns.io/kb/general/dns-filtering/)
+
+![DNS protection *border](https://cdn.adtidy.org/content/kb/ad_blocker/windows/version_8/protection/dns_protection.png)
+
+Here’s what you can configure in DNS protection:
+
+## Choose a DNS server
+
+You can select from multiple trusted DNS providers. AdGuard itself offers several options for different needs:
+
+- AdGuard DNS — blocks ads and trackers.
+
+- AdGuard DNS Family Protection — blocks ads, trackers, and adult content.
+
+- AdGuard DNS Non-filtering — provides a secure and reliable connection without any filtering.
+
+You can use one of our public servers, add your own custom DNS server, or pick another trusted option from our [list of trusted DNS providers](https://adguard-dns.io/kb/general/dns-providers/).
+
+## Add DNS filters and rules
+
+To fine-tune protection, you can create your own DNS filters using [DNS rule syntax](https://adguard-dns.io/kb/general/dns-filtering-syntax/) or import ready-made [DNS filters](https://filterlists.com).
+
+In addition, you can create custom DNS rules to block, unblock, or redirect domains as needed. Use our built-in rule constructor.

+
+AdGuard can extend website functionality by acting as a [userscript manager](/general/extensions.md). This allows you to add your own scripts as well as manage existing ones.
+
+![Extensions *border](https://cdn.adtidy.org/content/kb/ad_blocker/windows/version_8/protection/all_extensions.png)
+
+## Automatically detect userscripts
+
+When this option is enabled, AdGuard automatically notices when your browser requests a userscript and offers to install it. If you prefer, you can also download and install userscripts manually.
+
+## Pre-installed userscripts
+
+AdGuard comes with four pre-installed userscripts:
+
+- AdGuard Assistent (Beta)
+- AdGuard Extra
+- AdGuard Popup blocker
+- Web of Trust
+
+### AdGuard Assistant (Beta)
+
+AdGuard Assistant is the legacy version of Assistant, which you can use if the [new Assistant](/adguard-for-windows/browser-assistant.md) is not available for your browser. As the name suggests, it helps you manage basic AdGuard settings directly from your browser without opening the app.
+
+AdGuard Assistant works with all browsers compatible with Microsoft Windows. It will not appear on websites excluded from filtering or on certain pages where it could cause display issues.
+
+### AdGuard Extra
+
+AdGuard Extra is a custom extension created to fight ad-blocker circumvention and ad reinjection methods used by websites. Such techniques are becoming more common as advertisers try to bypass ad blockers.
+
+AdGuard Extra works by modifying the way pages are loaded, making it more difficult for websites to bypass ad blockers using these advanced methods.
+
+### AdGuard Popup Blocker (Beta)
+
+This extension stops unwanted pop-up windows from opening while you browse. Some popups can be useful — for example, settings for website management or extra reference information that appears after clicking a link. If needed, you can turn off the Popup Blocker.
+
+This extension does not work on the allowlisted websites.
+
+### Web of Trust (Beta)
+
+Web of Trust lets you see the reputation of websites based on user ratings. Websites are reviewed according to several criteria, including trust and security.
+
+This extension is off by default. Keep in mind that it is developed by a third party, not AdGuard.

+Finally, you can protect these settings with a password and choose which user accounts they apply to.
