Hey @carlos1984,
Just for testing, can you see if animations of this website work on your Windows? https://animate.style/
Can you give us the link to your website so we could see if it works on your end?

Do you find it working from your place? Or are do you get the same issue I’m adressing?
Hi,
In your Windows 10: Settings > Ease of Access > Display > Show animations in Windows.
Can you check if that’s enabled?

Hi again, that is the problem! if users don’t enable animations in windows which I don’t think they do. This is not good. We ned a workaround for this.

I googled that this is the problem that you can remove?
The prefers-reduced-motion CSS media feature is used to detect if the user has requested that the system minimize the amount of non-essential motion it uses.

@carlos1984 We can remove it but it’s there for a reason. Animations for a lot of people, especially people with disabilities, can ruin their experience browsing your website.
That’s why all the systems give an option for users to stop such things from happening.
We really don’t recommend that you change this behavior else it can make browsing your website a lot difficult for people with special needs.

Yes I understand that but really it should be the oppostie way that animation is ON by default and then the user can turn it of if they want. As it is right now no animation is visible for any window user that uses the default settings.
If you use like libs like gsap or locomotive they work everywhere.
@carlos1984 That option isn’t enabled by default. Someone must’ve enabled it by mistake or maybe it was enabled by some software. But yea, Windows doesn’t enable it by default so it shouldn’t be a problem with other Windows options.
We had few people using Windows check your website and it was working fine on them. Maybe if you ever had software or followed a guide about making Windows faster? Such things usually disable it as that makes browsing a little bit faster (or at least seem as such).
But rest assured, that option isn’t enabled by default as far as we are aware.
