Are you trying to load any streaming video on Twitch and facing Error 3000? Well, then I’m going to tell you in this guide how to fix this error. Folks who use the Google Chrome browser come across this issue very often. Now, let’s understand why the Error 3000 happens? Apparently, the Chrome browser is not able to decode the video when you try to load it on Twitch.
I have explained a few simple workarounds that will fix the problem easily. You can try to clear the cache, cookies of the Chrome browser. Usually, storing too many cached files may make the browser slightly inefficient while trying to load a video. Try to disable the hardware accelerator of your browser to fix the Error 3000. You may also allow the Chrome browser to enable the website URLs to set cookies.
How to Fix Twitch Error 3000
There are a few other troubleshooting methods such as trying to view streaming on Twitch using Chrome’s incognito mode. If nothing else works when you load a video and constantly get Error 3000, then you can use Twitch through other web browsers.
