Whenever you
try to visit some media or news website, they welcome you with an auto-playing
video or audio which you cannot skip at least up to a few seconds. Some times
this auto-playing media can make you feel bad if you are working in some
places.
However,
most of the web browser has some settings to control auto-playing audio and
video on sites.
Microsoft
Edge Browser also has a similar feature by which you can control audio and
video which start playing automatically on sites. Now the question is how to do
this?
Turn Off Auto-Playing Media in Microsoft Edge Browser.
The entire process is divided into two steps, in step one you have Enable block option for
autoplay settings, and in the second step you have to turn off auto-playing
media through settings. To do so-
#Step 01
1. Open your
Edge Browser and type the given URL in the search bar and press Enter.
2. Enable the first option “Show block option in autoplay settings" and Restart the Edge
Browser.
#Step 02
1. Open your
Edge browser and select “Settings and more” from the top right corner. From
there, click on “Settings”.
2. From the
left panel, select “Site permissions”.
3. Inside Site
permissions, scroll down to the bottom and select “Media autoplay”.
4. In Media
autoplay section, you will get an option “control audio and video play
automatically on sites”. Click on the drop-down menu on the right and select “Block”.
By blocking
this feature, the media that play sound will be blocked automatically and the
changes will be applied to new tabs.
Note: If you
are using the previous version of Edge browser, then you don’t have to perform
the first step because the block option is already there.
