there has to be an add on that will stop this, Windows 10 takes far too much memory and these unnecessary videos drain my memory even more.

I don't speak Computerese and have a hard time with instructions you may find easy.

Thanks

Go to Add ons (Tools>add ons) do a search for Ad-Block it is great for blocking stuff - works on those Yahoo video ads and many others as well

If you don't find an effective add-on, could you give an address of a page that demonstrates poor behavior and where the unwanted videos appear? There unfortunately is a trend toward giant page-wide background videos, and I don't know whether an ad blocker will block those.

@JohnHenryReaves :

You say that this happens on   Yahoo mail :

If you are using AdBlock Plus you can install another add-on, called the   'Element Hiding Helper'. Once installed and activated you can select the entire video window and hide it.
