    Welcome to Android Central! Which file manager are you using, and where are you tapping to try to open the apk?

    Many thanks not expecting a reply so soon but that's great

    it is an Android TV boxH96 pro not sure if it's I'm in the right group

    I was going to install another file browser but it won't let me run anything including MP3
    as you can see it shows a tick mark and does nothing else I was thinking it's associated with the wrong App something like that
    the mp3 looked like it was associated with Gallery in the file browser I went to Gallery and I could run it from there

    I am thinking about resetting the unit and starting again but not sure where to get all the apps again like Stremio etc.
    also, it would get rid of the constant pop-ups adverts.

    Thanks

    I moved this from the Nougat forum to the Android TV forum, since Android TV is a distinct interface.

    Are you able to long-press it?
