YouTube has been rolling out a new design of its home page with large previews and the loss of its familiar and useful layout.

Unfortunately, none of the below works anymore. If something new is discovered, we’ll post it here.

To restore to the old layout, use the F12 key to bring up the PREF cookie and replace its value with this: f5=30&al=en&f1=50000000&f6=8

The above no longer works but this does:

Install a user-agent extension like User-Agent Switcher for Chrome or Firefox

Chrome users:

1. Go to youtube, and on the drop down, you have to hover on “This can read site and change data” when you are on youtube, and select the youtube option. This will make it work just on youtube.
2. On youtube, left click the icon, and go all the way to the bottom, under the ‘Spider / Bot’ options, and there is an option called ‘Googlebot (Google’s Spider)’. Click that and it should work.

Firefox users:

1. Go to youtube and set your user agent to Google Bot
2. Tick ‘Override for Domain’

Windows will try to download the icon for the printer but this often gets stuck because the Microsoft metadata server stops working. You can turn this feature off on the WIndows 10 machine by running the following command in a command window:

Rundll32.exe %SystemRoot%\System32\newdev.dll,DeviceInternetSettingUi

After rebooting, the printer should show fully installed and ready.
