Zotero won't open a .enw or .ris files

Zotero won't open downloaded .enw or .ris files on Windows 10. I point file explorer to open with at zotero.exe. When opening the file, Zotero opens as expected but the citation is not added to the library
  • Zotero cannot import ENW files. You need to export your endnote library to XML first.

    For XML or RIS, in Zotero, click File -> Import-> Import from File… then select the file.
  • So I was attempting to export a citation from Google Scholar (without the Firefox extension). Adding the Zotero browser extensions solved my issue.

    An error message regarding a citation failing to import may be useful.
