Windows 10: Windows explorer keep restarting when I play youtube video in browser

Every time I playing a youtube video, when the video starts running, Windows Explorer seems to restart for example, when you open a folder, the folder closes, and the cursor lags for a few seconds. Is there a way to fix it? I do all stuff like turning off hardware acceleration in the browser, using another browser like Chrome, Brave, Mozilla, Edge, clear cache, even reinstall my browser.

Troubleshooting help: YouTube videos won't play on Windows 10 PC

I just got a new Windows 10 PC & I'm finding that it won't play YouTube videos. Specifically YouTube. In the video area the loading indicator circles indefinitely and I see this message...

Additional info & steps I've tried...

• Netflix plays flawlessly
  
• Other Macs, PCs, iOS & Android devices on the same network play YouTube videos no problem
  
• I restarted the machine
  
• Restarted the cable modem
  
• The machine can do other Internet stuff fine -- browse websites, email, etc.
  
• I cleared the browser cache & browsing data
  
• I tried a different browser (I tried Chrome & MS Edge)
  
• I looked under "Windows Defender Security Center > App & browser control" but I don't see anything there about blocking videos.
  
• Turned off ad blocker
  
• Tried connecting via Ethernet and wi-fi
  
• No peripherals connected to the machine
  

System info

Windows 10 Pro

Version 1803

Installed on 8/14/2018

Any help, advice, or further troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

  Does the issue occur on playing videos saved in the system drives?

I tried your suggestion twice to uninstall the drivers and reinstalling it again, didnt work.

I also tried installing the update in clean boot, also didnt work.

I am sure it is not a browser issue. Here is my debug:

I went one step further.

Upon installing the 2 updates, I uninstalled security update KB3163018 only, and i was able to play full screen mode again. BUT, problem is Windows keeps forcing me to install KB3163018 every time!!! And when this KB3163018 is installed, my youtube can't
