YouTube Videos Will Not Load When Opened With a Direct Link

oliverpockets opened this issue · comments

Whenever I try to open a link directly to a video (any video), it will not load. It will behave like it is about to play the video and then it will display this error page: https://i.imgur.com/EcbpfPs.png

However, if I simply open https://www.youtube.com/ and navigate to a video by clicking things, it will load and play the video just fine.

It works normally in other browsers such as Microsoft Edge. And it works in Chrome in an Incognito window. It is only in a regular Chrome window that it will not work properly.
