Are you getting the error message ‘This content is not available, please try again later’ on YouTube in Chrome or Firefox?
This is a common playback issue that causes videos to not load correctly when you watch them.
It is usually caused by conflicts between YouTube’s anti-adblocker and adblocker extensions.
The problem occasionally appears in specific browsers after recent YouTube updates.

Why does YouTube keep saying this content is not available?
YouTube continues to say that the content is unavailable due to YouTube’s ongoing anti-adblocker measures.
The platform detects ad blockers (e.g. uBlock Origin Lite, AdGuard) and responds by pausing video playback.
This is part of Google’s repeated attempts to enforce advertising, which results in the error appearing in desktop browsers.
Other common issues include account glitches, browser cache conflicts, outdated extensions, or network issues.
