Transferring user dictionary to new device

Transferred Pleco from old Samsung tab to new Samsung tab using Samsung Switch a few months ago. No problem.

Had to delete Pleco account from new tab (long story). Now trying to transfer from old tab to new tab again. Transfer was successful but did not include my User Dictionary although it is still on the old tab. The User dictionary operates fine on my old tab.

Tried through Samsung Switch and then manually by downloading the User dictionary to a chip. When trying to open the User dictionary file to download a message pops up that reads "Unable to find application to perform this action" I can read the database file path in the old tab. It simply can't be downloaded or transferred. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Maybe pack it in a .zip file? Should be easier to transfer that way and most file manager utilities will cheerfully open + unpack the contents of a .zip for you (from whence you can then open the dictionary database backup itself in Pleco via Settings / Manage Dictionaries / Add User).
