    Green Screen instead of Video Playback after latest update Windows 10 build 1803


    Video no longer works properly after my PC received a feature update last night. The audio plays back but only green is shown instead of video playback. Initially there was a message that said a restart was needed to finish upgrading audio device. I restarted the computer but there was no change.

    :)

    MS Edge video Green Screen frustration...

    I don't have a question but I feel I must post this comment...

    Let me preface this by saying I really like Windows 10 and have not had any issues other than the green screen when trying to play either steaming videos or videos saved to my computer. The result is the same: the sound plays but the video does not, the
    dreaded green screen displays instead.

    I have tried and tried a multitude of "fixes" ( I wont get into which "fixes I have tried because it's too many to list) for the video green screen that seems to plague video playback.

    The only solution that seemed to work is I changed my default setting to Chrome for streaming videos and for saved videos I downloaded VLC Media Player. Since then I have not had any problems.

    Win10: windows update stuck at never ending loop ?

    When in win10:
    • Update&security -> Windows update -> Finding update... .... .... ....
    Planning to download the latest Win10.ISO (vers.1803) and manually update:
    - Then wait that my ordered new SSD arrives and clone the old HDD to it.
