    Movies and TV app broken with latest updates No 4GB file support


    The latest Windows updates have broken the Movies & TV app. I have used it for a couple years to open Vivitar 4 GB .avi movie files. The latest updates have changed the file size the application can handle. 2, 3, and 4 GB .avi files now get a file corrupt error message, even though the file is just fine.. It can still read and play the 1 GB files ok. I had to switch The default player back to Media Player to view the files. Really BAD Quality Control Microsoft!!!

    :)

    Movies and TV app broken with latest updates No 4GB file support

    Movies & TV app crashes.

    It happens when I try to open Movies & TV app and also when I doubleclick on a movie file. When I doubleclick on a movie file it shows an error message "The app didn't start".

    I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the app (as I did with the Photos app which then worked), but this does not work with the Movies & TV app
