Videos are green?
All of my videos are green on Windows 10. It doesn't matter if they are locally stored, streamed from YouTube, or played from DVD's; every video type imaginable I could test with is green.
It doesn't matter what program, or web browser I used (tried Edge, Chrome, and Firefox)—I get the same green video. I've also tested with Windows Media Player, and VLC Media Player with the same green result. I can hear audio just fine but all I see is green for the video.
I do NOT seem to have this issue with video games or pictures—I only have Minecraft installed so that's the game I tested with to confirm.
Update: Sorry for the lack of a reply. Things have been a bit hectic. I have gotten everything to work except Apps. Edge works, IE works, Chrome works. Just nothing else... Thanks for the help...The suggestions in the first answer have partially helped....
Update 2: Seems to work in VLC for Windows Store... But not Movies & TV

Installing drivers through Windows Update Windows Update is the premier starting point to resolve most common driver issues you might experience immediately after installing Windows 10.
Simply launch it from Start > Settings > Update and Recovery and click Check for Updates
or
Press Windows key + R Type: ms-settings:windowsupdate Hit Enter Click Check for updates (make sure you have an active Internet connection).
Potential Solution 2
Install drivers using Device Manager
If your driver was not detected or installed by Windows Update, you can try installing the driver manually if you have a compatible version. Windows 10 and previous versions of Windows such as Windows 7 share the same driver model, so it should work.
Press Windows key + X
Click Device Manager
Once device manager is open, select the device, right click it and click Update Driver Software
This will launch the update driver software wizard, which presents two options.
- Search automatically for updated driver software - its possible Windows might have the driver software if you have not checked it yet.

My solution to the problem was to turn off Hardware Acceleration. Every application that I have had issues with, the moment I turn OFF Hardware Acceleration, the applications runs smooth after that. I'm not sure what Windows 10 did that caused such an enormous amount of headache with hardware acceleration, but it's definitely going to need to be addressed. Below are links to correct the issues in your browser, however, you'll have to do the same in every application where you experience issues. Since I don't have the time to list out the instructions for every application in the world, you'd have to hunt and find that setting and disable it. Hope this helps!

Install Firefox and install adobe flash plugin and flash pluting for your tube. Make sure edge is closed when you do this. I now have sound in my videos and in Netflix using Microsoft edge. Thank you Microsoft for wasting everyones time on this. But this fix worked and you did not suggest it. I got this form a blog somewhere.
Solution 2:
I saw this in Windows 8 when you use an AMD GPU and have Hyper-V installed. If you have an AMD GPU and use Hyper-V, disable Hyper-V if you don't really need it.
Also disable HW acceleration in the programs options, this also seam to fix it.
