Thank you very much. The reason I want VLC Player is other player's such as Window Media player dose not open many formats such as H.264, I personally like to use the Window media player, which other players do you recommend.
Also, If the Webroot shows the Red warning wile trying to Download any file, Dose that mean it could be a False warning ?
Thanks

I use it and it's a great player for PC and I use it on Android as well! Could be a FP but in most cases WSA would detect the PUA's in the download. https://community.webroot.com/t5/Techie-KB/How-to-Remove-Potentially-Unwanted-Applications/ta-p/40744
 
Also since my system is 64bit I use the 64bit version: http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/last/win64/vlc-2.1.5-win64.exe
