Windows 10: YouTube videos do not play in Chrome

Hello Everybody!

Today I wanted to watch some YouTube videos but the videos never played. If I press the Play button it doesn't play but I can drag the slider around. It has been happening for a few days and it's getting really annoying! Sometimes videos will play and sometimes it wont!

Thanks!

:)

 

Media not playing

I tried to play a song i downloaded in google drive and it would show that it had started at 0:00 but play no sound same for youtube videos it show a picture of the beginning of the video but would stay at 0:00 and not play and i tried doing both playing
the song and youtube video in chrome and microsoft edge and it won't work, it's possible this is a problem with my computer and not windows but either way i'm not sure what to do

 

HTML5 Videos do not play

Youtube videos play fine, however HTML5 videos do not play. I have tried Edge, Chrome and Firefox, The player loads but I do not get any picture.

It was working fine on windows 7, now that I upgraded to 10 I can not get these web videos to play.

 

Hi TheAmazingGuy


An obvious check, but make sure you have the latest version of both Adobe Flash Player (if you installed it separately) and Google Chrome installed.

Does the playback of Youtube videos work fine in other browser's? (e.g. Microsoft Edge or Mozilla Firefox)

Finally have you been noticing any issues with the speed of your internet? (this can affect videos being watched in HD)

 

Have you checked the html5 video player: YouTube Lots of YouTube videos will play using HTML5. so make sure your browser is using it by default.
Or follow this one: http://www.videoconverterfactory.com...t-working.html
More solutions: remove Ad-Block(if you have installed it); log in YouTube with another account; clear browser data.

 

- Does YouTube play in other browsers ?

- Check your Display Driver
