    CFA folder access issues running netflix through browser since latest windows10 update


    among other problems since resolved, i have a netflix playback issue since latest update: it was recommended to me to change the downloads folder location to an unprotected folder BUT i think changing downloads folder does not affect where streaming vid is temp cached , which is a folder inside application data and therefore included as a protected folder.(and the cause of the error) when i switch off cfa, i can run netflix as per usual in firefox. but as soon as cfa is enabled i get a streaming error (obviously cfa is doing its job). i cant create an exception as only .exe files can be given this and the temp folder is not an .exe file. what might i try to keep cfa enabled, not give firefox.exe access and run netflix as per usual? thankyou

    :)

    Please check your Windows updates (including optional updates).

  4. CFA folder access issues running netflix through browser since latest windows10 update

    I have some problems in my Windows 10 when i try to run Netflix.

    Hello Fenton,

    • Are you watching Netflix via browser or Netflix app?
    • If browser then which browser are you using o watch Netflix movies?

    If you are using Netflix via Internet Explorer, then we suggest you to follow the below step and check if it helps:

    Step 1: Disable add-ons and check if you are facing the same issue:

    Manage add-ons in Internet Explorer

    Step 2: Reset Internet Explorer and check:

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/internet-explorer/reset-ie-settings#ie=ie-11

    Disclaimer: The Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature might reset security settings or privacy settings that you added to the list of Trusted Sites. The Reset Internet
    Explorer Settings feature might also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature. Also re-enable the add-ons..

    Step 3: If you are using Netflix app, then try the below steps and check:

    I would suggest you to run the Troubleshooter for Windows App and see if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Let us know the status of the issue. We ill be happy to assist you further.

    Thank you.
