I have a video that I downloaded. The initial format of the video was .flv. Using a softwware program, I converted the file to an mpeg file, but what I noticed was that it was being saved as .mpeg_ . When I took out the _ the icon of the file changed to a filmstrip icon. According to help file documentation, Windows Media Player is supposed to be able to play, and in fact supports, the file format .mpeg. Why is it that when I double click the file, Windows Media Player gives me an error message stating that it can't play the file? I am using Media Player 11, and I checked the Microsoft website, and that is the most recent player available.
Microsoft Edge comes pre-installed with Windows 11 and it's a great browser, so why not use it? Not everyone is trying to run away from Google, sometimes people just want convenience and less friction.
No. The file manager is a lost cause. After all, its dev receives all the undeserved praise he could evre wish from Neowin, without having actually earned it. This has never lead to improvements.
