How to Fix NSES-500 Errors

The appearance of the NSES-500 error code can be frustrating, but it usually isn't a severe problem worth worrying too much about and can be fixed relatively quickly. Here are some of the best-proven solutions for getting rid of the NSES-500 Netflix error message that will get Netflix working correctly once again.

1. Refresh your browser window. Select theRefreshorReloadicon next to your browser's address bar to refresh the Netflix web page that you're on.

   Refreshing the web page won't delete your watch progress in the movie or show you're viewing as long as you're connected to the internet.

2. See if other websites are loading. If you're having trouble loading other sites on the same device, the problem may be a slow or unstable internet connection.

3. Restart your router. If you are having internet troubles, restarting your modem or router is one of the more effective solutions.

   If restarting your router doesn't work, there are some other internet connection fixes that you can try.

4. Check if Netflix is offline. It's possible that the entire Netflix service could be down due to some kind of glitch or server issue.

5. Close your browser and try again. The NSES-500 error can occur when your browser has been open for a long time. Close the app and open it again to see if this fixes the problem.

   Try bookmarking the web page you're on before closing the browser so you don't have to search Netflix for it again.

6. Sign out of Netflix and then sign in again. From the menu in the top-right corner, selectSign Out of Netflixto log out of the Netflix website and then log back in again.

7. Clear your browser's cache. Your browser's cache can contain older versions of web files that may be causing conflict with the Netflix site. Deleting these files may fix the problem and stop the NSES-500 error code from appearing.

   After deleting your browser's cache, close your browser and then reopen it before trying the Netflix site again.

8. Delete cookies and other browsing data. If clearing your browser's cache didn't work, you may also need to delete some of the other data collected from various websites and internet sessions.

   Restart your browser after deleting these files to make sure any of the conflicting data isn't still present in your current session.

9. Check your VPN. Your VPN may be preventing your web browser from properly connecting to Netflix's servers. You may need to turn it off if you can't find a specific issue with it.

   Many major streaming services often release security updates that prevent their content from being streamed over a VPN.

10. Disable your browser extensions and add-ons. If you have add-ons running in your browser, temporarily turn them off to see if this fixes the NSES-500 issue.

11. Check your internet settings. It can be worth inspecting your device's internet settings to see if another user has disabled any online functionality or added any limits that may be disabling media streaming.

12. Try a different web browser. There's a large number of quality free internet browsers available for computers, tablets, and other smart devices. You don't need to use your device's default app.

13. Try the Netflix app. Official Netflix apps are available for pretty much every device imaginable from Xbox and PlayStation consoles to Blu-ray players and smart TVs.   

    Unfortunately, Mac computers are the one category of devices that Netflix doesn't have an official app for but there is one for Windows PCs and laptops.
