Quick troubleshooting

Protection does not appear on a page
  1. Open the Visual Shield toolbar popup and confirm that Protection is on.
  2. Confirm that People or Faces is selected.
  3. Reload the page after installing or updating the extension.
  4. Check whether your browser has granted the extension access to the current site.
A video cannot be analysed

DRM-protected video, Picture-in-Picture, closed shadow roots, and some cross-origin videos cannot be analysed. Strict protection can cover unsupported video instead.

Performance is slow

Open Advanced settings and choose Balanced or Battery Saver. Closing unused video tabs can also help.

Settings are not being applied

Check whether “Remember for this site” created a site-specific rule that overrides your global defaults.

What to include in a report
