Files wont open after moving them from Mac to Windows?

[justinm_]

These are the things I've done - I started by using a memory stick (exfat) to transfer the file with the audio tracks in to my laptop. I tried to open the audio files and it says this file can not be played.

So i have gone back with an external hardrive and formatted a section of that drive to be exfat and copied the files over. I then opened the audio files on my laptop and they worked but now since i got home i've turned my laptop on again and now the files are bringing up the same error message as before?

I tried plugging the HD into my PC to see if i could open it there but that pc doesn't even show the HD partitions at all? (it knows i plugged something in but it doesn't show the drive!)

I need these files for a uni project which is due soon so any help would be appreciated!

Can you copy the exact error-message from the windows log?

A checksum test of the files can prove an error in the file transfer or data corruption of your drive.

I suggest you try to stick the drive into another computer to see if the problem is related to the audio files or something other, like a media decoder issue.

Another possibillity is the present of some sort of malware that encrypt files and later on blackmailing the user for unlock the files.

If using Windows Media Player is the only way you know how to "test" it's a lost case. There is no way to know why WMP throws up this error.
