I would try another file manager simply on principle. I used to use ES, then it started coming with unwanted "payloads" in the form of lock screen ads. I believe the app was purchased by Cheetah Mobile, one of the least-respected app developers in the Android world.

I moved to Solid Explorer and happily paid for the full version.

Additionally - are those apps not available in the Play Store? Where are you getting the APK from?

Welcome to Android Central! Just because you downloaded apks from somewhere doesn't mean those apks are compatible with your device. And websites that have apks available are not always the safest place to obtain apps -- you have a higher risk of getting malware.
