<![CDATA[[Solved] Twitter says "The media could not be played" when trying to play a video.]]>I recently had to update Windows 10 and after waiting an hour for the update to finish I went on Twitter to find that I can't view videos or gifs anymore. I'm currently using the Opera GX browser, but I've also installed the regular Opera browser and have been met with the same result. It seems to be only on the Opera browsers because there was no problem playing videos on the Chrome browser. I have searched for some answers but none of them worked, so I decided to make my own post. Thanks in advance.

Downloading the media pack from the site didn't work but I went to "Settings> Apps> Apps & Features> Optional Features> Add features", searched "Media Feature Pack", downloaded it from there and it seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks for the help!
