Netflix: "Update Required"

Post by ou812 »

I recently logged out of Netflix and when I tried to log back in I received the "Update Required" message.
Searching on useragents.me I used the latest Windows Desktop user agent for Chrome browser :Chrome 121.0.0, Windows 10/11

The user agent string: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

This user agent fixed my problem

Reviews of sharing user agent string adjustments can often resolve this issue and allow for a seamless login experience.

Updating the user agent to the latest Chrome version is a great workaround for bypassing the "Update Required" issue on Netflix.

Netflix's "Update Required" error can sometimes be bypassed by changing your browser's user agent. Using the latest Chrome Windows desktop user agent (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36) effectively resolved the issue.2048 game

Thank you, I had actually answered my own post I believe the next day. I was using an old agent that I pasted into my shortcut.

I changed the user user agent to (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/121.0.0.0 Safari/537.36) and it fixed the problem.

I have since then installed User Agent Switcher for Chrome and have been updating my user agents.
I am about ready to change to another browser though. I was having a problem logging into some other sites and I am getting tired of searching through user agents & clearing cookies until I find one that works :x

I am using the current Version 131.0.6650.1 on Windows 11 & version 109.0.5550.0 on another PC with Windows 8.1
