Just don't buy a Chromecast 4K, it is a regular Android, with ads, capped (no NTFS support, no native file picker) so regular apps don't work.

I am regretting having bought it.

You mean the Chromecast TV? External drive works on it, you can install apps. I have no ads, you can have another launcher as well.
