- Received a cloud share email but does not have Windows 11.

Scope/Context

- Evidence Library Cloud (ELC) 

- Evidence Library 5 (EL5)

- Mac OS compatibility

Outcome/Recommendation

- Use the free VLC video player software, which is compatible with Mac OS, to play back video files shared via CloudShare.
