I’m surprised that my forum search found only one item that isn’t helping.
I had videos turned off from automatically playing and was happy with Chrome with the puzzle piece and right clicking to activate the videos.
A couple of days ago, I was on the US patent search and had to enable plug ins to see the images of the patents.
Now videos are constantly playing. I’d like to shut them off again.
I went here http://www.pcworld.com/article/2858421/internet/how-to-stop-autoplay-videos.html
and followed the instructions, but they still play…even after shut down and restart. I don’t know where else I can make changes to be back to what I was.
I think you go to Add-ons, then Plugins–where there is a list of plugins including Flash. Then on the right hand side of this list there are drop-down lists for Always Activate, Ask to Activate or Never Activate.
my problem is that I’ve disabled the plug ins on Chrome like I shown in the link. Not working.
Yet last week it was working until I had to fiddle with them when looking at a patent.
