Windows 10: Progress Bar Stuck Bug - Netflix Windows 10 App

I started noticing recently in the Netflix app for Windows 10 that sometimes, when the progress bar starts to fade away, it becomes stuck and remains visible on the screen. Moving my mouse around a bit typically helps, but sometimes it just stays stuck. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I have tried reinstalling the app quite a few times and I still experience this problem. Also, sometimes, the Netflix app will flicker to the desktop briefly when I move the mouse. I am thinking it might be some bug or glitch with the current version of the app.

Windows 10 - Progress bar pops up every 10 seconds on Netflix app in fullscreen mode

The progress bar pops up every 10 seconds when in fullscreen mode while using the Netflix app on Windows 10. It's really annoying and I can't seem to find a fix for this anywhere.

Hi Nishkaam,

There's a possibility that the firewall or antivirus software on your computer is blocking the access to Netflix, we suggest disabling it first before connecting to Netflix. Follow these steps:

• Close the Netflix app.
• Turn off the firewall and antivirus software on your computer.
• Now, launch the Netflix app.
• Once it's connected to Netflix, turn back on the firewall and antivirus software on your computer.
• You should be able to access Netflix now.

Let us know if you need further help.
