unfortunately didn't work
Would you mind posting a screenshot of the error message?

It's fine to crop out other stuff if you'd like. It'd be good to include the address bar, though.

Paste the pastebin link you're trying to access.

(You could still connect to other sites at that time using a browser, right?)

There's no normal, standard, sort of reason you should have to do that.

"
my dns is from the public servers of google ,


Is there a system/OS/quality/technical reason you've assigned a custom DNS?

"

What "extension?"

"

My first bet would be a third-party anti-virus is either blocking PoB:Public Branch, if the issue you're describing happens there, is blocking that "extension" you installed (whatever that is) and/or has pastebin "blacklisted." Check your Antivirus settings, permissions for installed programs, and any "sites" black/white lists.

That's assuming the link you're trying to follow is valid and you're doing everything else appropriately.

I don't use Chrome, on purpose...

The error message number (#) might help.

First, try copy/pasting the pastebin link in your browser's address bar, just like you're navigating to a website.

If you're not getting an error and a pastebine paste opens up and you see a bunch of gobbity-gook text, then the site is not being blocked by your DNS/country/etc.

I checked the pictured pastebin link and it is functioning.

If you get an error when doing the above and your browser, either your browser/DNS/Country/computer is blocking pastebin.

Try Importing other pastebin build links into Path of Building Community Fork. (That's the only PoB that is now receiving support.)

https://pathofbuilding.community/

If you get the same error, your computer or antivirus could be blocking PoB. If neither are doing this, then your commputer or antivirus could be blocking the pastegin.com host. If not, then the DNS provider or Country could be blocking it.

There are several countries who are actively, or have previously, blocked pastebin.com because of its use by "activists" and the like to communicate with the press/others/each other. One can find lists of these countries online.

when i try to copy to the browser's adress it appears the same error that cannot establish connection , and before indeed showed that text that u talk about ( " the code that the build have " ) , im using that Pob that u mention and already tryed to do that in different versions , the problem with maybe being blocked my country is that my friends can use it normal way with no problems and i can't for some reason.
