Hello All.

So recently, out of the blue the Movies & TV app and the new WMP started acting up. Whereas before file started playing immediately, now it takes around 20 seconds or so for a file to start playing.

VLC and WMP Legacy work just fine and my laptop is less than two months old so I don't know what the issue could be.

Thanks.

I should have added that I already did the whole repair, reset, uninstall/reinstall apps routine to no avail.
