How to Fix Annoying Netflix Errors

There are a lot of online streaming platforms like Netflix, but Netflix has grown such a market value that people do not like to switch to any other platforms and rather stick to Netflix only.

Despite being the most popular online streaming platform, sometimes it can cringe us with it’s annoying errors. Let us talk about all the problems that occur with Netflix and what could be done to fix it.

Below mentioned are the tips and ways to get over maddening Netflix issues:

  1. Set Netflix account to default

Sometimes, you might want to put down your account to default and start fresh. By doing this, all the history your account holds and recommendations will get deleted. If you’re still willing to do the same, follow the steps below:

  • Go to the ‘Manage Profiles Page.’
  • For Desktop users, go to the ‘Profile’ icon and then ‘Manage Profiles.’
  • Select that one profile you want to start from scratch with and delete that profile.
  • After this, you can create a new profile and start fresh.
  • Erase shows from ‘Continue Watching’ list

The weirdest thing is to see all those shows lined up in the ‘Continue Watching’ section, which we didn’t like and stopped watching in the middle.

‘Continue Watching’ section brings up those shows as a reminder which gets cringy all the time. The steps to delete these shows from the list are:

  • For application users, go to the ‘Account.’
  • Click on the ‘Expand Profile’ option and then ‘Viewing Activity.’
  • The next window will appear with a list of shows you’ve watched till date. Tap on the ‘NO’ symbol present next to each show, to remove it from history.
  • You can do this for all those shows appearing in the ‘Continue Watching’ section, which you don’t want to continue with, anymore.
  • Watch high-resolution Netflix shows

Netflix shows could be watched in higher resolution depending upon the payment and the plan you’ve chosen. A higher plan will have an option to watch shows in higher resolution like HD.

To change the quality of the shows, follow the steps below:

  • Go to the ‘Account.’
  • Click on the ‘Expand Profile’ and then ‘Playback Settings.’
  • Locate a section which says ‘Data usage per screen.’ Tap on the same and choose the video quality of your choice.

For a better video quality experience, web users must switch to the application.

  • Get better Netflix suggestions

There is an algorithm used by Netflix, which collects data and recommends shows on your watching history, which proves to be wrong almost all the time!

To enable Netflix at giving you better suggestions, opt for ‘Ratings’ theory. Click the ‘Upvote’ icon for the shows you like and would want to watch similar content. This way, you can influence the Netflix recommendations, and it’ll start bringing you the content of the same type.

  • Skip intros of the content

Most of the shows give you an option to skip the intros of their series in every episode, except the first one. On the other hand, some shows do not provide any such option.

Want to ignore going through long intros? Just estimate the length of the intro, and then you can fast-forward the section in each episode.
