I upgraded to IE-11 from IE-8 last week. I don't regularly use IE, but software I use to daytrade with is based on IE. The did a major upgrade and I had to update to IE-11 for their software to work. Everything works fine, except for their CNBC stream. Its an embedded Flash-Player. But its not just this. No videos play at all Youtube, videos on websites... none of them.
Let me start by saying I have tried everything. Flash is current and enabled. Windows is all up to date. The ActiveX filter is off. I have gone through and tried every possible combination of the ActiveX settings and every other setting in IE both under the"advanced" tab and the "programs/manage add ons" settings.
And... when I go to Adobe's test page.... the little animated screen that has a tree growing with clouds floating by works fine. So apparently Flash is working fine, at least on Adobes site. https://forums.adobe.com/external-link.jspa?url=https%3A%2F%2Fhelpx.adobe.com%2Fflash-player.html
But on top of that I have done a "clean flash uninstall" where you run Adobe's on-line cleaner and then go in and manually delete files; followed up with a fresh install. https://forums.adobe.com/thread/928315
Firefox and Chrome..... no problems at all.

This is the error on MSN's Homepage videos when I try to play them: We're sorry, an error has occurred when playing video (video format is not supported).
