카카오톡 광고 차단First, let’s look at the screen in question and the screen we want.
Nice to meet you? It would be a screen. A static advertisement screen like this is displayed at the bottom of the friends or chat list.
It’s not completely static either.
If you look closely, it may quickly change to another advertisement.
However, you can remove the ad window on PC KakaoTalk as shown below.
2 ways to remove PC KakaoTalk ad window
There are two ways to remove PC KakaoTalk ad windows, as shown in the picture above.
1) How to utilize the friend or chat list more widely by completely eliminating the advertising area as shown on the left.
2) As shown on the right, no advertisement appears, but the advertisement area is replaced with another Kakao photo.
Of course, just looking at the results, the method on the left is much wider and cleaner, but it requires installing a certain program.
The method on the right has disappointing results, but it can be changed with just Windows settings without installing a program.
In this post, we introduce an unfortunate method, as shown in the photo below.
Please refer to the post below for information on how to completely disappear the advertising area.

Now, let me introduce it in earnest.
1) First, click the Windows Start button > search for Notepad > right-click > run with administrator privileges.
2) When the User Account Control window appears as shown below, click Yes.
3) Click > File > Open in the top menu
4) As shown below, when Windows Explorer appears, enter the path in the address bar to enter.
* Copy path: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
5) At first, there will be nothing, but click [Text Document] at the bottom right and change it to [All Files].
6) Then the hidden ones will appear, select the hosts file and click [Open]
7) The contents of hosts will appear in Notepad.
8) Enter the code below here.
* Copy code: 127.0.0.1 display.ad.daum.net
9) Then, save it as is and close Notepad (CTRL + S)
10) At this time, if you check your PC KakaoTalk, it will not have changed yet.
Do not close the KakaoTalk window on your PC, but completely turn it off or reboot your PC for it to take effect.
Click the triangle on the right side of the taskbar > KakaoTalk icon > Exit.
