Windows 10 Videos not loading properly

[MrCosta]

On Chrome, Youtube videos load properly, I have no problem whatsoever but on Edge, the video doesnt load, only the sound. On Facebook, videos don't load at all, either on Edge or Chrome. I don't know what to do, all of my drivers are updated!

To resolve issues with video playback on Edge and Chrome, particularly with Youtube and Facebook videos, you can try these troubleshooting steps:

For Edge:​

1. Clear Browsing Data:
   • Open Edge.
   • Click on the three horizontal dots and choose "Settings."
   • Under "Clear browsing data," click "Choose what to clear."
   • Check "Cookies and saved website data," "Cached data and files," and other relevant options.
   []Reset Edge:
   • In Edge, go to "Settings" > "Reset."
   • Select "Repair as the first step" to see if that resolves the issue. If not, you might need to reset Edge entirely.

     For Chrome:​

   []Clear Browsing Data:
   • In Chrome, select the three dots, go to "More tools," then "Clear browsing data."
   • Choose the time range and the types of data you want to remove.
   • Click "Clear data."

General Tips:​

1. Verify Adobe Flash:
   • Ensure that Adobe Flash is up-to-date.
   • In Chrome, enter chrome://components/ into the address bar and look for Adobe Flash Player to ensure it's updated.
   • In Edge, Flash should be integrated so no separate action might be needed.
   []Disable Extensions:
   • Disable or remove extensions one by one to check if any are causing conflicts with video playback.
   []Update Graphics Drivers:
   • Make sure your graphics card drivers are updated to the latest versions. If these steps don't resolve the issue, you might want to consider resetting the browsers entirely or utilizing alternative video playback applications like VLC Player or updating both browsers to the latest versions available.
