Answer:

Block Unwanted Sites

We can block sites from the settings of the browser we are using.

If you are using Google Chrome, then

  1. Go to settings
  2. Go to "Privacy and Security"
  3. Go to "Site settings"
  4. Go to Notifications and block the unwanted sites.

If you are Microsoft Edge,then

Step one: Launch Notepad with Administrator Rights

The new navigate window will open, you need to navigate to the location where the host’s file is available.  

To view files under this folder, you need to switch from Text Documents (*.txt) to All Files

Step Two – Add Sites which you want to block

Next, you need to type links of the sites which you want to block from opening in the Edge browser. Suppose, you want to block Facebook and YouTube, then here is how you need to type it:

Note: Before editing the host’s file it is very important to make a backup of the file.

To block Facebook, type this: 127.0.0.1 www.facebook.com

To block YouTube, type this:  127.0.0.1 www.youtube.com

Step Three – Save the file

After modifying the host’s file, click on the Save button and close the file. Also, close the Microsoft Edge browser to apply the changes.

Now if you try to visit Facebook, YouTube and other sites which you have blocked; then you will notice that the site is not opening and showing you a message, i.e., Can’t reach this page or similar.

Please mark me the brainlliest.
