Edge can't play YouTube videos on Windows 10 upgrade

Hi,

Not too sure if there is a fix yet? I can't play YouTube videos on Edge. I'm okay in Firefox though. Would anybody be able to help me out with this (?) - help appreciated!

Thanks.
David

go to the gear up top in explorer.. go down to windows options.... when it opens click on advance tab ...check software rendering.... videos should now play in edge and explorer

Make sure you are using the HTML5 player in YouTube.

A bit late, but thanks to those who replied - I checked "software rendering" in the advanced tab and now it's working.
Many thanks!!!
