Browser Crashes when streaming video

When I am watching Twitch streams, it will play for a period of time and then the entire browser will crash.  The only temporary fix is to reboot the PC.

 

I have tried a few fixes including:

 

Ensuring Windows 10 is up to date.

Reinstalling chrome.

Deleting local state file (a common fix found on various troubleshooting threads)

Streaming on Microsoft Edge (with the same results)

 

Chrome is my preferred browser and it seems clear that the same problem will happen with other browsers as well.

 

Appreciate any help.

 

Thanks

Hello.  Thank you for your reply.

 

I ran CCleaner and deleted temp internet files

I ran a scan for malware with no results

I did the system integrity check and returned no errors.

 

The only thing I've yet to do is run web browsers without add-ons.  But I can say this; I don't have any add-ons for microsoft edge and the same issue was happening as for chrome.

 

Will advise further if problem persists.
