    mkv files freeze computer on download


    Windows 10. I'm not even getting a chance to try and play them. Upon download, they cause my computer to hang up. I've never even gotten to the point of trying to play one. And I can't delete the file by normal means, I have to do all kinds of extra stuff to get it off my computer, after which it works fine again. Every time I've tried downloading a mkv file I run into the same problem. Anyone run into this problem and have a fix?

    :)

    Problem with mkv Files

    Hi,

    Experiencing issues in playing mkv files after an update may have something to do with the video card driver. If you have another mkv player app or program, we suggest that you try playing those files using another app or program to help us sort out this
    issue.

    If in case the issue persists, we suggest running video troubleshooter. Just click
    Find and fix problems playing movies, television, or video on this
    link.

    You may also try rolling back the video card driver. Follow these steps:

    • Right-click the Windows key and select Device Manager.
    • Locate and right-click your display adapter, then select Properties.
    • Select the Driver tab and click the Roll Back Driver option.

    Let us know how it goes so we can further assist you.

    Regards.
