Can't see WMV, AVI or FLV files in Media Browser

I am using Windows 10 on a Lenovo T52 Thinkpad with an NVidia graphics card.

I just installed Premiere Rush, and am trying to add a .WMV file to my media folder using the media browser. However, the .WMV file does not appear when I navigate to the folder containing the file.

If I change the file extension to .MOV or MP4, the file does appear, although there is an error message that it cannot load a preview (makes sense). However, .AVI and .FLV extensions do not.

Is there something else I need to install to be able to add .WMV, .AVI and .FLV clips?

    Hi john.loo,

    Thanks for your interest in Premiere Rush.

    This is happening because the mentioned formats are not supported in Rush as of now. Please check the list here--

    How to import audio and video footage in Premiere Rush from the computer, phone, or cloud

    You can use Adobe Media Encoder to convert these files to any format that Rush supports.

    Thanks! I had already gone down the Media Encoder route. Thought I saw .WMV as one of the supported formats
