Quicktime player

I have few old files I had created using the Quicktime player few years ago. I had stored them on my portable hard drive. I tried to access them now but I can not open them anymore.

Is there a way to open them ?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14

I am recording VHS tapes through El Gato video capture to convert to movies. I just need one to save in alphabetical order. How did the different file names get created? If I save them on the hard drive, can I edit them after I save them? I am trying to teach myself how to use transfer VHS tapes to save on my computer. Any advice would be very helpful to this rookie. Thanks so much!

Open them in QuickTime Player 10 (Applications folder) and it will convert them to more modern codecs for viewing.
