Windows 11 issue with Edge and Chrome
I have installed the preview build and removed it 4 times due to having issues with Edge and Chrome. If I open Facebook any images take ages to load if at all, and trying to watch anything on YouTube is pointless as it just buffers. If I do a speed test in Edge or chrome I get 75mbps just as I do on Windows 10.
I have tried clearing the cache on both browsers with no luck. Has anyone had this issue and resolved it?

same issue for me too. i just downloaded windows 11 day before yesterday. and both chrome and edge is unbearably slow. i couldn't even scroll down properly. it would take seconds before going down and there is a glitch. i really hope they fix this as soon as possible. i cant work at all in this device if this continues.

- vbarbasCopper ContributorAfter upgrading to win11, Chrome is not working at all (not even opening).
Troubleshooting till now:
Reinstallation
Delete profile
cmd commands
etc...
- ArwinndCopper ContributorI have a similar issue on Windows 10 from some time. Some web pages are usable but barely. Messanger is working really badly on chrome and edge. On other pages I get issues with images.

Same issue here.
I installed Windows11 yesterday 28/09/2021 on my Dell Vostro 3681. As soon as I tried opening Facebook, messenger, and YouTube I found they were all buffering.
My download speed is 270 Mbps
Most other pages work fine
I tried Chrome and Edge.
I cleared my cache on both browsers.
I reset my network adaptors.
I downloaded the latest drivers.
I found if I disable Ethernet it works perfectly on Wireless.
I went to Dell and downloaded the latest Ethernet driver.
The issue persists.
Today 29/09/2021 I found new updates in Windows Update that all said pending, I installed the updates and the computer restarted and now the sites work correctly.At least I thought it was working correctly but soon realised that cached data was loading quickly but new data was still taking ages to load.
I disconnected Ethernet again and it works perfectly on Wi-Fi.
I hope they fix it soon. - Fear345Copper ContributorI have tried each build and still get this problem. I have uninstalled Chrome but still have issues with Facebook not loading all images, and YouTube videos buffering none stop. I do hope this is fixed in the final release build.
