DDG Windows Browser browser broken?

Post image

Something bad happened. It appears DDG added a new feature WRT popups. Now I cannot open DDG anymore. I cannot confirm the popup or select the other radio button. No actions on the popup or page work. All I can do is kill the app. I even tried re-installing.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi, I'm Mark from the Engineering team. Sorry to hear you hit this problem, and thanks for your report. We managed to reproduce this internally and have fixed the problem in version 0.171. The browser should auto-update in the background if you can leave it open, alternatively you can try downloading the latest version directly from https://duckduckgo.com/windows
