HOW DO I ENABLE CLOSED CAPTION WHILE WATCHING A MOVIE?

Sorry, but a PC is not a TV and this may simply not be possible with the content you're watching on the PC.

 

With TVs, the content comes from the TV station either directly, or through some cable or satellite service -- and that content contains "subtitles" that are displayed when you enable Close Captioning on yourTV.

 

With movies you view on your PC, there are two issues: Movie content and Media player.

 

In general, to see if Subtitles are available, you have to check the options in your specific Media Player while watching the movie.  IF the movie contains subtitles, then there will be an Options setting that will allow you to select that.  If the content does not include subtitles, there will be no option to turn them on.

 

Also, different Media Player apps have different options, and not all include Subtitles.

 

Good Luck
