Seems like your USB drive is formatted with a filesystem that doesn’t support large files like FAT32, if you are able to, try formatting into exFAT in Linux with:

sudo mkfs.exfat -n LABEL /dev/YOURUSB

or in Windows by right clicking on the USB and clicking format.

I’ve filed a report to GitHub on this guy, I assume you did the same but ugh, people suck.

uBlock Origin has cookie/popups filters that you can enable in its settings that work pretty well

Go into your uBlock settings and purge the cache and update your filters, that should fix it, filters do usually keep up to date with YouTube but uBlock stores the old ones cached.

As per the arkenfox wiki, you should not touch user.js but rather in user-overrides.js add (or create it) the following:

/* override recipe: enable session restore ***/ user_pref("browser.startup.page", 3); // 0102 // user_pref("browser.privatebrowsing.autostart", false); // 0110 required if you had it set as true // user_pref("browser.sessionstore.privacy_level", 0); // 1003 optional to restore cookies/formdata user_pref("privacy.clearOnShutdown.history", false); // 2811 // user_pref("privacy.cpd.history", false); // 2820 optional to match when you use Ctrl-Shift-Del

See info on overrides and the recipe to enable session restore

uBlock Origin is really all you need for blocking ads, if you also wanna deal with the whole sponsors on videos SponsorBlock is a good companion!
