Hi,

Firstly, please check if this rule is in the top of the rule list. Besides, maybe you can block all YouTube websites using Domain Name Sets. You can create a deny outbound firewall access policy with domain Name Set *.youtube.com.

In addition, you can try to create another rule to block another HTTPS website to see if it works at the same time.

Best regards,

Susie

You could also try tools like HTTPWatch or Fiddler to capture when the user clicks on the link and see how it  reaches them, and create a rule for it.
