Could someone assist me with downloading and previewing videos?
I download my videos and they appear but won’t open unless I pick Hiw to open this file: adobe, Firefox, internet explorer etc and none of them open??
Anyone have suggestions?

Hi KJRP51, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
What type of file are you downloading, according to the file extension?
Do you have a compatible video or media player to view the file on your computer?
This will help me to assist further!
