IE 11 and You Tube

[richc46]

Hi to all
I have been away for a while, but now I am back with a question. I tried and liked IE 11. The only problem is that You Tube Freezes, even if I am just on the page and nothing is playing. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

I had to Uninstall flash but it's been working well after that ?
I've been checking out music videos and never noticed Shockwave was disabled
So ie11 must have some components for playing content on youtube,
After enabling it does show a more tradition youtube video frame.
Otherwise it's working well,
I did however need to switch back to gpu rendering for other small issues.
Cheers and welcome back

Just like to add some people have said Enhanced Protection Mode was activated when updating to ie11 but this was not the case on my end so you might check on that,
Internet options/ Advanced section.

I just updated, reinstalled flash player, but Internet Explorer 11 is still unstable on YouTube. Since v10, it seems to be getting less stable...

I appreciate that information. If enough people are affected there will probably be an update soon.

Namely TLS 1.2 and or ssl 3.0?

I just installed IE11 on Win7 Professional 64 bit and also discovered that YouTube locks up the browser every time. I'm also having trouble with other sites causing the AMD display driver to crash and restart. This is definitely being caused by IE11, I've never seen that display driver crash message until I installed IE11 but now it's a routine occurrence. This browser is totally unstable.

Thanks to all. Your time and information is appreciated. Among other reasons, I wanted to be sure if my installation of IE was not corrupt in any way. With all these problems an update should be coming soon.

How are Microsoft supposed to know of issues? Are crash reports automatically composed and sent to them?

I have enabled HTML5 on YouTube

It seems to solve the problem

That depends,
corruption comes in many ways,
One being Compatibility view lists that download automatically from Microsoft,

These lists have always caused issues and conflicts with loading pages and content of,
Gear symbol/ Comp-view settings/ Uncheck the option to download these pretty controversial lists,
Clear your cache to rid yourself of them/ Internet options/ Delete browser history/ Uncheck the top box and check all others/ Delete. although Form fills and a few other options,
I made this in hopes it would help others with some of the settings,

That was one of the first adjustments I made, to see how IE 11 handled it. It's still unstable, haven't really measured it.

I am going to stay with IE10. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

It almost seems as though Microsoft didn't test IE11 for Win7 at all. How could this product make it to public release like this?

Anyway I uninstalled and am back on IE10 which may not be the best browser in the world, but at least it's functional unlike IE11.

How can I downgrade from IE11 to IE10?

The same way that you would move from IE10 to IE9:
via Start > View installed updates

There is a video in this post showing that process:

Since I discovered that I did not want IE11 on the same day that I installed it, I used System Restore.

Good policy

If I didn't have two machines I wouldn't bother with ie11 either,
It's too dpi and zoom sensitive,
Most people increase dpi and zoom for a reason,
