We understand that you are extract the files from the Trend Micro Vault saved from the a hard disk that was installed on your old and broken laptop. Allow me to share some information about this.
You can locate the files on saved on the Trend Micro Vault on the location from the old hard drive:
\Users\\AppData\Local\Trend Micro
Example:
F:\Users\TMKiko\AppData\Local\Trend Micro
Note: This location is Hidden by default so try enabling the Hidden Files of your computer and as well as the System Protected Files from the Folder Options or File Explorer Options on your computer before proceeding with the steps.
The files should be saved there.
I hope this works!

The Trend Micro Vault encrypts the files inside it to have it protected. There is a chance that it will not function using another application due to the change in coding.
Can you try extracting it first out of the Trend Micro Vault then try opening the video again? You can just copy the file and paste it on your desktop then try playing it from there.
Hope this helps.
