How to fix YouTube lags in Microsoft Edge?

I've been experiencing frequent lag issues while watching YouTube videos on Microsoft Edge. The video would stutter, pause, or buffer for a few seconds before resuming, which is quite frustrating. The issue is not limited to specific videos or channels, as it occurs with various content on YouTube. I've tried closing other tabs and background apps, but the problem persists. I've also checked my internet connection speed and it's stable.

This makes me suspect that the problem is specific to Microsoft Edge. I'm hoping someone can help me identify the cause of the issue and provide a solution to fix the YouTube lag on Microsoft Edge.
