Steps to reproduce:

  • Install Windows N
  • Use Chrome for years being able to play videos just fine
  • Decide to give Firefox a try

Actual results:

Firefox isn't able to play videos on popular sites.

Firefox must be broken.

The user gets frustrated and uninstalls Firefox, but not before trying a bunch of irrelevant troubleshooting steps.

Expected results:

Firefox should prompt to download and install the Media Feature Pack for Windows N when it is missing from your system.

Most users aren't able to get to the right support forums and articles.
