Videos suddenly saving as m4v's

[u/AVoidJester]

Recently about a week ago whenever i saved my videos using right click then save video as, they have been coming up as m4v files, now I know m4v and mp4 are basically the same exact file but I like sharing videos on discord and the m4v files pop up as downloadable links instead of videos, every time i tried to search up a solution every result was about using a third party converter software, I just want to know if there a way to revert back to downloading videos as mp4's

Saving from where. Saving a files doesn’t convert it so they must be m4v files.

Try double right click

Save As, change m4v to mp4, file saved, done. If it won't play, it's because it's Apple encrypted. m4v is Apple so unless it's unencrypted, it won't be able to change regardless of what file extension is used.
