In this article, we&#8217;ll go over a few of the most common causes and solutions to fix this issue. From Internet connectivity fluctuations to conflicting Chrome extensions, we&#8217;ll cover all the bases! If none of these options seem to work, read on to learn about a few more solutions that may be causing your YouTube to crash.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Internet_connectivity_fluctuation\"><\/span>Internet connectivity fluctuation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You might be experiencing trouble playing videos on YouTube because of fluctuating Internet connectivity. Check your bandwidth by checking your internet service provider and checking the bandwidth usage on your device. If the video is still not playing, try restarting your device, or even changing your router&#8217;s firmware. If none of the above steps work, try using a different browser. Google Chrome seems to be more optimized for YouTube. If none of these steps resolve your problem, you should contact your ISP to find out what&#8217;s going wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason your YouTube is having trouble loading may be your Internet connection. The servers are constantly overloaded with traffic, so it may take a while to load a video. Sometimes this happens when you are using an older version of YouTube. A newer version is generally more stable and bug-free, so updating your YouTube application may be the best solution. If that doesn&#8217;t fix the problem, you can also try uninstalling the app and downloading it again.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conflicting_Chrome_extensions\"><\/span>Conflicting Chrome extensions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If your YouTube video is constantly freezing or crashing on your computer, you may be experiencing conflicting Chrome extensions. If this happens, turning off any problematic extensions is a quick way to fix the issue. First, open Chrome&#8217;s settings. Click the settings icon at the top-right corner of the screen. From there, choose Reset settings, and then confirm by clicking Reset. Then, disable the problematic extensions one by one.<\/p>\n<p>The problem may be caused by a number of different extensions and plugins. If you have several of them installed, disable one by one. Then, restart your browser to see if the problem goes away. If this doesn&#8217;t work, disable any troublesome ones by disabling them one at a time. If none of the above options fixes the problem, contact the extension developers and ask them to remove the offending extensions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uninstalling_and_reinstalling_YouTube\"><\/span>Uninstalling and reinstalling YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re having trouble with the YouTube app crashing, try clearing your cache. Clearing your cache will not delete your account, but it will restore the YouTube app, which should solve your problem. YouTube shouldn&#8217;t be accessing your camera or sensors if this is causing the problem, so you can try uninstalling the app again. If none of the above solutions work, you may want to try a VPN connection.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on your device, you may experience frequent crashes when you&#8217;re using the YouTube app. This can be caused by many reasons, including a lack of memory or space. If your device has adequate storage, uninstalling the application may fix the problem. If you have a lot of applications running in the background, you can also try restarting your phone. After reinstalling the app, make sure you grant the app all the necessary permissions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Restarting_your_device\"><\/span>Restarting your device<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If YouTube has stopped working on your phone, try restarting it and see if this fixes the issue. Depending on your operating system, you might need to update the app, or your device might have too many background applications. If this is the case, try force closing the app and restarting it. Force closing is also an effective way to fix YouTube crashing on your phone. This method will force the app to reload from a fresh memory allocation, which may fix the problem.<\/p>\n<p>If this still does not work, you can also try to reset your phone to factory settings. The factory reset option removes personal data, settings, and applications from your phone. You should backup all important data before attempting this. If the problem persists, you should reinstall the app. If reinstalling does not resolve the issue, you may need to perform a factory reset. If your phone is still crashing, try restarting it to clear any data that is still on it.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"427\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"239\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tmoJSHVR498\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why Does YouTube Keep Crashing?
