- Update the Microsoft Edge browser to the latest version.
- PlayReady DRM for Windows 10 on edge://flags must not be disabled. See: edge://flags/#edge-playready-drm-win10.
- The https://www.microsoft.com/store/productId/9NMZLZ57R3T7 must be installed.
- The "Use hardware acceleration when available" setting is enabled. See: edge://settings/system.
- The following edge://gpu settings requirements must be met:
- "Compositing" is "Hardware Accelerated".
- "Direct composition" is "true".
- "PlayReady Hardware DRM support" is "true".
- A Windows 10 computer or tablet with the latest Windows updates installed.
- A 60Hz 4K capable display (with HDCP 2.2 connection if external display).
- NOTE: Every monitor connected to your computer must meet these requirements to successfully stream in Ultra HD.
- Intel's 7th generation Core CPU (i3, i5, or i7 models in the 7xxx or 7Yxx series) or newer, or a NVIDIA GPU that meets https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4583/~/4k-uhd-netflix-content-on-nvidia-gpus .
- A steady internet connection speed of 25 megabits per second or higher.
- Streaming quality set to Auto or High.
