Vector licensed has unremovable checkered box - although licensed as transparent background

Question

Hello everyone,I recently purchased https://as1.ftcdn.net/jpg/01/27/67/66/500_F_127676686_zP8wVsGawvEtpqXjGqcMWEnjrry86www.jpg  and I cannot seem to be able to remove the checkered box from it to use the light effect only. I figured it would come in a file with multiple layers and I would just have to remove them, but I was wrong. I think this file is faulty.thanks for the time, hope

The file works just fine.Are you opening the file in Illustrator? The file is an .ai file which you need Illustrator to use. To get rid of the checkered background hide the bottom layer. Each of the different sparkle effects are on a different layer in the layers panel.
