[Android Central Question]

Hi. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite.

I have downloaded some videos from an app. When i click on My Files, i can see the videos under the Download arrow, under Catagories. When i go to the Download Folder, they are not there.

I went to a specific video, clicked properties, and found that they have been saved under Android/data/then the file name.

I went to this extension, and found the file!! However, they are 0 bytes; completely blank.

The video's have obviously been downloaded somewhere, since i can play them.

Thanks for any input.

Have you checked your sd card ? And which app was this ? You could try another file manager like Total Commander.

I'll leave a Link to register so you can communicate here as a guest account you can only post questions but can't reply.

Welcome to Android Central! Do the videos actually play using the app you used to download?

It might also have to do with Android 11's Scoped Storage: https://www.androidcentral.com/what-scoped-storage. Try using another file manager like Total Commander of Solid Explorer, both of which I think have a workaround for that.
