Windows 10: Why does my edge keep on playing videos when I charge even when there is no opened browser?

So, it started with my chrome, I was playing and suddenly YouTube videos from languages that I cannot understand kept on popping up so I deleted Chrome. Afterwards it happened to my Edge and what's worse is that something is playing even though Edge isn't even opened. I cleaned the laptop and all, then restarted. It stopped happening, but when I open edge or charge my laptop it suddenly starts again.At this point I don't know what to do anymore, should I reformat? Pls help T-T

Edge browser crashes on full screen video ?

Hi,

Thank you for posting your question on Microsoft community.

I appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

Step 1: I suggest you to clear the browsing history cache and check if it helps:

• Open Edge browser click on three dots.
• Click on clear browsing history.

Then try to play the video and check if the issue persists.

Step 2: Run the apps troubleshooter and check if it helps with the issue.

The Modern app troubleshooter can automatically identify and fix some problems with apps and the Store

Refer to the following article and run the Apps troubleshooter:
