Hello,

Can you tell me the output which you have seleted to publish ?

If you have published as a .zip file then make sure that you extract the folder before opening the published file.

Thanks and Regards

One of our DI´s here it´s having this problem too, when hits F11 to run the content in browser it opens inside the word the index.html.

The html extension inside windows is set to be open in Chrome, odd!

This same thing happened to me. Go to File > Publish > Media > Select type: MP4 Video. Also, I found that File > Publish > SWF/HTML5 > Output Format Options: HTML5 gave me better output.
