Some video files use a Codec that is not installed as a standard. In these cases, if you play
back the video file after connecting to the Internet, the Codec may be downloaded auto-
matically, allowing you to play back the file.
If you cannot start up a program or share files, this may be because the "Firewall (Win-
dows Firewall)" in the "Windows Security Center" is set to be enabled.
If this function is set to be enabled, damage from viruses and other attacks is reduced, but
some programs and functions cannot be operated.
To use the program or to share files or printers:
You can use programs or other functions without the effects of the Windows Firewall by
registering them as an exception in the Windows Firewall settings (it is not necessary to
disable the Windows Firewall).
Note, however, that if a program is registered as an exception, there is a risk of damage from
viruses or other attacks. Before registering a program as an exception, confirm the program's
safety with the manufacturer or other reliable source.
