Microsoft Stream will not load in Chrome

In Chrome, when I click Stream from the portal.office.com homepage, it will hang up on the Stream Red Arrows (loading) forever. I tried clearing my cache and it still does it.

 

It works fine in Edge and Explorer. Any thoughts on what to do here?

    Innovation  I had this exact problem for the longest time.  I tried removing extensions, hard load and refresh, but nothing was working.  I finally got it resolved by following the steps:

     

    • Launch Developer Tools and select the Application Tab
    • Expand Local Storage, right-click on web.microsoftstream.com and select clear
    • Expand Session storage, right-click on web.microsoftstream.com and select clear
    • Expand cookies, right-click on web.microsoftstream.com and select clear
    • refresh the page

    After following these steps, stream is now up and running again for me in chrome.  Hope that helps.

      Jace_C  You're my hero - thanks so much!  :smile:  Stream was stuck on loading for ages...in Chrome and Edge...finally had to sort out and found your post...worked like a charm in both browsers! Thanks again - cheers!

  • I am getting the same problem. Sometimes i can log in but there is nothing available to click. it will tell me you need to refresh your browser but that doesnt change anything Innovation

      Shawn Salamipour  - This issue seemed to resolve itself for me. For a while, I just used a different browser. Now it works fine in Chrome again. I'd suggest upgrading Chrome

    I was having some problem loading a video as well. I disabled an extension that was preventing the page from loading. Maybe worth a try to see if a privacy or ad blocker is hanging it up?
  • That's very strange...I use Google Chrome regularly with Office 365 including Microsoft Stream and I have never seen those problems when accessing Stream so I recommend you to open a support case here.
