Anyone know how to fix Error Code 102630 on my system?

I keep getting this Error Code 102630 whenever I try to play videos online. I have no idea what’s causing it or how to fix it. Has anyone faced this before? Please share what worked for you — I’m stuck on this.

Error 102630 (media could not be loaded) can typically occur with a wrong browsers or video players.
Fixes:

1. Clear cache and cookies
2. Disable extensions
3. Install new player/ browser or revise/ update.
4. Make internet connection stable.

Yeah, I’ve run into that one before — it usually means the video can’t load (common with browsers or streaming sites). Try this:

1. Refresh the page or restart your browser.
2. Clear cache/cookies and try again.
3. Disable any ad blockers or VPNs that might block media.
4. Update your browser or try another one (Chrome, Firefox, Edge).
5. If it’s on a site, check your internet speed or try a different network.

Usually clearing cache or switching browsers fixes it for me.
