Downloaded Movies wont play after they are downloaded on Samsung Galaxy S8

[ssquires852]

I am having the problem where any movie or tv show i download wont work after about a day. They work right after i download them but not later. I found out this problem is with Google Play and Vudu. I tried clearing cache, deleting google and readding it, deleting google play, downloading to SD card versus onto internal memory. Nothing seems to work. Anyone have any ideas?

Do you have any memory optimization apps or 'device cleanup' running periodically? They might see the additional downloads as cached files and not as proper downloads and those might be deleting the files.
