    Hey everyone,

    Every time I've opened YouTube since last night, it's displayed like this:

    Untitled.jpg

    I've blacked out my personal details and I've: refreshed the tab; closed the tab and reopened; closed the entire window and opened it again; cleared my entire browser history; typed it manually in the search bar, and searched for it on Google and clicked the link to the site, and every single way I do it, it displays as it's shown above.

    Anyone have an idea as to why this could be?

    Thanks,

    Joe.

    I've had that happen before but never quite that insistently. It usually means my internet is running too slow to load the page.

    I've got four tabs running now including this one, and every website open is running perfectly, and when I open YouTube in a fifth, it's still displaying the exact same. :tears:

    Well, it looks like the CSS didn't load...
    Try using another browser if it doesn't go back to normal.

    I've that happen to my before, but not veryoften. It's no major problem, just leave it for a while and it normally sorts itself out.

    Scriptblockers and AdBlock also do that sometimes

    That happens to me when it's running very slowly. It usually goes back to normal when my internet starts behaving.

    I have had the same problem. Apparently it is something to do with adblock blocking CSS. I have switched to ablock pro and now have no problems.

    I've had that problem before especially when I've been recently getting a lot of DNS errors. For me flushing my DNS and clearing my browsing history usually fixes the issue.

    If you haven't already, if you're using Chrome, clear your cookies and history. I've had that all day and then did that, and now it works perfectly again.

    Okay, I went to another video from Google, and it went back to that look...

    Making sure cookies and such are cleared from the beginning of time would help..

    Hey everyone,

    I decided to leave my laptop off for a day or so, and have just come back to it now and it's working perfectly again. :slight_smile:
