  1. why does windows 10 start playing videos on the startup screen without even being logged in yet


    its super anoying, when i turn my pc on, and there was a browser still open from last time.... without entering the password to log in, the videos already start playing.................................. what is this kind of nonsense? turning off autoplay in browser does not help?
    you can not even see the video yet, you only see the windows log in screen and hear the audio of the video when this happens.
    (let me guess why this happens; so that the videos generate more plays??, does microsoft has somekind of deal with youtube here?)

    why does windows 10 start playing videos on the startup screen without even being logged in yet

    I can't get a video to stream to my lg smart tv in full screen , it's playing full screen on the pc no problem

    Hi Steve,

    To assist you better, I like to know; how exactly you are trying to stream video from your PC to LG Smart TV?

    As an initial step, I suggest you to try updating the display adapter on your system.

    Follow the below steps:

    • Click on the Start button, and type Device Manager on the search bar.
    • Open Device Manager, expand Display Adapters.
    • Find and double-click Display Adapters from the left panel to update.
    • Right-click the device, and click Update.

    As you are able to play the video full screen in your PC, then it might be an issue related to LG Smart TV. I suggest you to check for the LG Smart TV manual and check what all settings need to done to play video in full screen.

    Kindly reply to us, with the status of your issue. We will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you.
