The instructions state to pre-install PowerDVD or Macgo Blu-Ray Player.

I don't need burning. And I have a Win PC, not a Mac.

Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'bluray:///E:\'. Check the log for details.

Finally got around to downloading that link. When I went to play the Yellowstone Blu-ray disc, this error popped up.

You're trying to use VLC to open it. You have to use the Leawo player I linked to play the Bluray.
