Download and install VLC player. https://www.videolan.org/vlc/

It's the absolute gold standard in completely free media players and will handle anything you throw at it. You can set it to update automatically, although there haven't been very many updates since it was released. It has lots of good features that are really worth exploring.

Hope you are well
