I´ve downloaded the last version of Audacity 3.7.0 and done a new downloading of FFmpeg for Audacity 3.2 and later from lame.buanzo.org.
When I try to import a mp4 file Audacity says that it cannot open this type of file without a FFmpeg library.
It seems that Audacity doesn´t connect with the FFmpeg function.
I have checked Preferences - Libray without any tracks of FFmpeg. I don´t know what to do in order to make this work
Could anybody please help me out?

Download and run FFmpeg_5.0.0_for_Audacity_on_Windows_x86_64.exe.
You may have to uninstall or delete the older version but I’m not sure.

Thanks for your answer. I did like you suggested, but the problem is still the same. In Audacity under - Help - in Info about the version it says that FFmpeg is activated.
Both Audacity and FF-mpeg data folders are located in (C:) Program and are as far as I can see 64-bit versions.
What more can I do?
PS. The mp4 file I tried to import is from Youtube.

You can try “downloading” to another format or record it yourself.
Or, convert the MP4 to WAV with Kabuu Audio Converter or TAudioConverter.
