Can adguard be made undetectable?

Some web site detects I'm using an ad blocker and ask me to disable it before allowing me to proceed.
Can adguard have a stealth mode so it can appear that I disable the ad blocker? It can download the ads and throw it away without showing me.

Reporting them to the Missed Ads forum section (after reading the section rules) might help.

Though if you're using AdGuard for Windows, reporting anti-adblock detections via the built-in reporting tool might be easier. Simply click on the AdGuard Assistant icon in the webpage (if you have the Assistant enabled, of course) and select Report the website and follow the instructions.

Doesn't work. The offending website does not allow me to click on the Adguard Assistant icon. The warning on the offending web page is on top of everything. Ok I tried to report the offending website by bringing up another tab in my browser. I got to tab 2/8 in the reporting tool and gave up. Way too many steps and hoops that I have to jump through. Why does Adguard make the user jump through so many hoops just to report an issue? I reported the offending site here. Why can't Adguard load up the site on their end and fix the issue? I am a paid user and not an employee of Adguard. Just fix it!

Not reproduced on the sites mentioned in this thread. Without a report (also possible manually) it is difficult to see where the issue lies exactly.

Well I fixed it myself by disabling Adguard. Thanks for nothing. Guess I won't renew since the program doesn't work right and customers have to fix problems ourselves.

It's worth pointing out that issues like this can't be fixed unless they're reported properly. There's just too many variables, and the filter devs can't always reproduce said issues, which is why having the most amount of information helps.

That's what the reporting tool helps with. Though you'll probably have to do it manually, since you can't click on the Assistant (though it works for me running the AG for Windows 6.4 beta/nightly build on that website). Knowing what filters and extensions (userscripts) you're using probably would be a great help as I can't reproduce this either using the filter lists/extensions in my signature.

You could try disabling a filter list one-by-one and pressing F5 in the web browser to force reload the website and see if the anti-adblock message disappears. At least that could narrow down the issue to a specific filter list.

All of those sites work fine with latest Windows Adguard 7.9 Nightly 7 with no detection of Adguard. You might try reporting them in the section for the Adguard extensions
AdGuard Browser Extensions

You mean the Adguard application or the browser extension? I am still on application version 7.8

The person reporting the 4 sites not working said they were using the Chrome extension. The tech4 site has some sort of Trojan reported by Malwarebytes.
