This was a response to a newbie member in another thread. Please take special note of the important hint at the end.

What you need to do:

1. Download the file to your computer.

2. If you are using Windows, start Windows Explorer to browse folders and files on your computer.

2. Find the folder it was downloaded into. Find the file in that folder. You can set default folders where files are downloaded for future downloads. Do that to avoid having to go through this problem every time you download something.

3. Double-click on the file to play it. If you get an error, find out which media player is set as the default on your computer to play that file type. File types are indicated by the file extension. For example, .wmv, .mov, .flv, etc. In Windows, the default media player is Windows Media Player, which is deliberately limited to certain movie file types, so don't bother with it. Besides, like all Microsoft products it is a prime target for viruses. The VLC media player will play just about any type of video file. Do a Google search to find a site to download VLC. When it is downloaded (in a .exe file format), double click on the downloaded VLC .exe file to install it. Follow the instructions.

4. Set the VLC media player as your default media player. In Windows, you do that in the Control Panel, which you start by double-clicking on it in your Start Menu.

5. If the file(s) have an extension like .rar or .zip, they need to be unzipped to put the pieces back together. Search other posts on GH to find out how to do that.

6. If everything goes well in the above steps, all you have to do from now on is to double-click the movie file you have downloaded, and the VLC player will open and start playing the film.

7. If you want to make a DVD from files you have downloaded, you will need a drive on your computer that can burn a blank DVD. There are plenty of free programs you can download and install on your computer that will do that.

8. Rest and make a stiff Martini, preferably with a Mezzetta Martini Olive, which has already been marinated in dry vermouth. You have earned it!
