If the browser does not display pictures, andInstead of them you see only empty squares with crosses - you need to figure out what happened. Let's try to find out what can be caused by this problem and what needs to be done to solve it. In fact, there are not so many possible causes, and most of them are quite harmless.
As you know, while working on the InternetThe browser writes hundreds of temporary files to your hard drive. This helps to speed up the loading of sites and "remember" what you did on different resources. However, if you do not periodically clean up the memory, the program starts to slow down and does not work correctly, which sometimes leads to the fact that the browser does not display images.
Decision:
You must delete the cache and cookie files,accumulated for all time. To do this, open the history of the visited pages (through the menu or the hot combination Ctrl + H), click the "Clear" button and select the corresponding items. At the end it is recommended to restart the program.
Virtually all modern browsers haveA special mode intended for accelerated loading of pages at low speed of the Internet. Depending on the settings, it can be turned on automatically or require confirmation. In this mode, multimedia content is not loaded at all, including the content of sliders and video, and sometimes because of this the browser does not display images.
Decision:
In web browsers that support thisfunction, in the status bar or right next to the address bar there is an icon "Turbo-mode" (for example, in Yandex.Browser it is a miniature spaceship). If the button is active, click and disable accelerated page loading.
It is also possible that images are blocked in the program settings. In this case, the browser does not display images on all sites.
Decision:
Go to the advanced optionsyour browser, and look for "Content settings" or "Content settings". Check the box next to "Always show pictures", apply the changes and restart the program.
Despite the fact that the advertising blockerssignificantly simplify the life, sometimes they lead to the fact that the content of the sites is displayed incorrectly - for example, images are not displayed in the browser. Why is this happening? The fact is that such extensions hide code fragments typical for ad units, being guided by their databases. Sometimes, in addition to various ads, under the impact of falling and ordinary pictures.
Decision:
Try disabling AdBlock and restarting the browser. If images appear, you need to change the settings or download an alternative extension to block ads.
With the excessively "paranoid" software, probably,faced everything. Most modern antiviruses monitor the operation of the browser in order to monitor and block potential threats in a timely manner. However, sometimes because of the settings for caching Internet traffic, the content on the sites partially ceases to be displayed.
Decision:
Go into your antivirus settings and set a lower protection level, or disable caching. After that, restart the browser and see if there are any pictures.
Although most often malware "clogs up"computer obtrusive advertising, sometimes it happens vice versa and because of viruses in the browser does not display pictures. As a rule, simultaneously there are errors and failures in the operation of the rest of the system, the computer slows down, does not want to open any files, etc.
Decision:
Full scan of the PC using anti-virusprograms. There are subtleties here. First, it's best to check in "Safe Mode Windows" - so the antivirus can find more dangerous files. Secondly, in addition to checking with standard anti-virus (Kaspersky Anti-Virus, Avast, NOD32, etc.), it is recommended to install and use special scanners such as Dr.Web, McAfee and GridinSoft Anti-Malware.
There are only 2 possible options.First, you accidentally changed something in the browser configuration. If images are not displayed in Mozilla for this reason, you need to enter "about: config" in the address bar and return to the standard configuration ("Reset" button). In addition, you can try to reinstall the browser, after erasing all the data about the program.
However, these are already radical measures. If everything is fine with other sites, then, most likely, the problem is on the server side, and therefore it is just to wait until the site owner takes action.
