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...
If playback doesn't begin shortly, try restarting your device
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
Gigabyte Aero 15x
Windows 10 Pro
Version 1803
Installed on 8/14/2018
OS build 17134.228
Any help, advice, or further troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
