    Are you guys all using Home?

    I have Windows 10 Pro, 64 bit. Installed the Netflix app on Saturday and it has been working flawlessly since (used it last yesterday night).

    From what I hear, Netflix has pretty good support - you can chat with them right from your favourite browser. Perhaps give them a shout and report back here?

    Hope you guys get it fixed. 1080p and 5.1 sound are glorious.

    I'm using Home, too.

    I found this Reddit post where the problem is discussed. One of the replies:
    Just had a nice chat with one in the support line that contacted me further to the tech support. And they are aware that a big part of new W10 users are having problems and they know the app is inconsistent right now and will face different problems on W10.They are aware and they are in process of doing a new build to push out so keep an eye out.
    In other words if you want to enjoy Netflix either use a different device or downgrade(like he suggested me LOL)
    I guess we'll just have to wait for an app update. By the way, W10 has been working flawlessly for me except for this.

    Apparently Netflix requires Silverlight which is not supported in W10, and
    Cliff same goes for Skygo.

    The Netflix app was working without issues when i installed it on the 30th of July. As of today on August 5th, it starts, spins for 5 seconds and leaves the screen. I have seen on the official MS forums that more people are chiming in on this issue. MS only gives the usual generic answers that 9 times out of 10 do nothing to solve the issue.

    Yup - another Windows Home user here. I guess as Netflix seem to be aware of the issue, it's a case of waiting for an updated app.

    I'm now able to use the Netflix app. I believe it started working after I installed Silverlight.

    Now I face another problem: My laptop is connected to a TV/Receiver via HDMI, and I only get the Netflix audio, not the video, when using the TV. The laptop display shows the video fine. If I use both displays at the same time (extended desktop) and stretch the Netflix window across the screens, the laptop displays its share of the video while the TV displays only black in its part of the window. So there seems to be a graphics driver issue. When using the TV as the only monitor, I also get this error after a while: https://help.netflix.com/en/node/14483. I've tried resetting the driver without success.

    I have an ASUS N56VZ laptop with Intel HD Graphics 4000 and Nvidia GeForce GT650M, both with updated drivers.

    I can confirm too that after the latest updates the problem has been fixed and Netflix is working again . I guess the folks at Microsoft were on top of it, the problem got fixed the next day. Kudos Microsoft!

    Have you tried taking the receiver out of the equation and just connecting directly to the tv? I have a similar setup (going from pc to receiver to tv) and Im able to see video at the same time when using clone desktop. I will try extended desktop and let you know if I have the same issue.

    Yup - also works for me now as well. Full marks to MS for sorting the issue. One daft question though - I made Netflix run full screen, and then couldn't find a way to exit the app other than Alt f4. Anyone the the correct approach?
