Can't playback Apple Prores files in Windows 10

Community Beginner ,
Feb 20, 2019 Feb 20, 2019

When I'm in Premiere pro, After Effects, or Media Encoder when I export a file to Apple Prores  it will not playback on a Windows 10 computer in VLC or Windows Media Player. The only player I could get it to play from was the old QuickTime player. Where can I can a codec that will allow me to playback the prores .mov files? Thanks for your help.

I can playback that file in VLC 3.0.4 but got problems when i updated to 3.0.6. I could however change the settings to OpenGL in VLC´s settings and then it worked.

If you care to upload a short sample clip to a file sharing site, I can download and test it here.

I can confirm that: for me only Potplayer will play a Premiere windows generated prores file.
