While Windows 11 supports HEVC playback, some devices may not have native support. In such cases, users can download the HEVC Video Extensions from Device Manufacturer or HEVC Video Extension (HEVC Codec) from the Microsoft Store
However, downloading files from the Microsoft Store can be a bit tricky.
For instance, for the HEVC Video Extension, you only need to download the .appxbundle file, which is the largest file in the list (~7MB). Make sure to check the architecture compatibility (x64, x86, Arm) for the files, depending on your system architecture.
And try libde265 Filters: is a Windows package that enables playback of H.265/HEVC encoded Matroska/WebM videos, on players such as Windows Media Player.
This extension is designed to take advantage of hardware capabilities on some newer devices— including those with an Intel 7th Generation Core processor and newer GPU to support 4K and Ultra HD content.
For devices that don’t have hardware support for HEVC videos, software support is provided, but the playback experience might vary based on the video resolution and PC performance.
This extension also allows you to encode HEVC content on devices without a hardware-based video encoder.
After installing HEVC Video Extension, you’ll be able to view .HEIC files, the fancy container Apple started using in iOS 11, directly in Microsoft Photos (or .HEVC files in Media Player).

VP9 Video Codec: What to Know
VP9, developed by Google, is an open, royalty-free video format designed to offer high-quality streaming with efficient compression. It’s the successor to VP8 and was initially popularized through Google’s YouTube.
VP9 mainly competes with HEVC/H.265, MPEG’s High Efficiency Video Coding format.
The format has gained more traction thanks to the Alliance for Open Media, which Google joined to support the development of AV1, VP9’s next-generation successor.
Compared to HEVC, VP9 enjoys broader support across web browsers, particularly in HTML5 video, and is compatible with about 80% of the browser market (including mobile).
The main browser lacking VP9 support is Apple’s Safari, for both desktop and mobile. Android, however, has supported VP9 since version 4.4 (KitKat).
