Hello dear WAMUG’ers, Daniel & Stephen, Update and closure
Many thanks for the advice to format the USB key to ‘exFAT’ as advised by Daniel. I did this last night and this morning transferred the 9.98 GB mp4 file plus some photos successfully on the USB Key. So all is now fine. Many thanks for the help and for this great forum which has helped me throughout many years! Happy Easter to everyone, please stay safe, stay at home and enjoy the day peacefully.
