How to play video files with .DM extension?












0















I had some files I transferred from my computer to my iPhone via Zapya and deleted actual files later on



I wanted to recover later and discovered that actual files are nowhere but I can see same files with same size but with .DM extension in my C:UsersUSERNAMEDocumentsZapyaVideo folder



I tried removing .DM extension and played on MPC-HC player and also on VLC Player but it does not play



Any idea on how to recover those files?

          A file with the .DM extension is a file (often audio) that has been encoded with DRM (Digital Rights Management) copy-protection; used by some cell phones for ringtones and other media clips, but can also be used for digitally signed mobile applications; can only be opened using an authorized cell phone.



          Since these files are protected with DRM (Digital Rights Management) copy-protection software, a cell phone must be authorized in order to use them.
