4,706 PointsI'm having the same issue. In the three dot button I only have Download or Captions options, but nothing happens when I click on the Captions option.

54,971 PointsI was curious about the three dots since I didn't see them with my Mac at work. But when I got home and checked under Windows I found them with Chrome. Still I could see the captions. However when I used IE11 I couldn't. With Windows my version of Chrome 68.0.3440.106 so maybe an update required?
