    Screen goes black when watching Youtube video Fullscreen


    There is a problem, when I watch long videos on youtube 15+ minutes the screen goes black automatically. It is fullscreen, I use Chrome, it should not go into sleep mode but it does.

    I don`t want to turn off the sleep mode because it is useful because I can leave my PC suddenly for few hours, and switching between profiles everytime before watching video is annoying. Seems like Windows doesn`t get the media playback task from browser (and Chrome obviously supports that on Youtube)

    :)

    Taskbar appears while watching YouTube fullscreen

    When I am watching a YouTube video fullscreen, every 5 or so minutes the task bar will show up on the bottom of the screen without any input on my end. If I move the mouse slightly the task bar goes away, but will come back after a few minutes. I do not
    use auto-hide the task bar. Is there a way to fix this? It is really irritating.

    Screen goes black when fullscreen

    Hi! After the latest windows update, when I play a video on some sites (for example, Netflix and Viaplay, but not Youtube) the screen goes black. The audio continues, and when I move the mouse it goes back to normal for a while and then goes black again.
    Why is this happening, and is there anything I can do to fix it?
