VLC Media Player Crashes As Soon As You Play Video

Hey guys,

Everytime I press "Play" on the video, VLC player crashes.

However, I found out the solution.

You guys may try it yourself if it works.



Option A: If you have a shortcut on your desktop,

1) right click and click "Properties"

2) Next, go to the "Shortcut" Tab, and click "Open File Location".

3) It should show a "vlc.exe" file.

4) Right click and click "Properties"

5) Go to the Compatibility tab, and tick "Run this program in compatibility mode for"



Option B: If you do not have a shortcut on your desktop,

1) Open the "Windows" button, and type "VLC"

2) Right click on the "VLC Media Player" and click "Properties"

4) It should show a "vlc.exe" file.

5) Right click and click "Properties"
