Hi I'm running Windows 10 Home version 1709 build 16299.19. Suddenly, after Fall creators update I can't view streaming video &/or Youtube in Chrome, Opera or Edge. Have updated all drivers. Have turned off hardware acceleration. Any ideas?
I am not really happy with "Edge" (I will get used it if I have to). I am very comfortable using Mozilla/Firefox using Google. Thanks for your time Leeb
