You can try watching it trough watch (top menu bar) -> downloaded -> then just left click and watch demo if that doesnt work restart the game or maybe even steam

When you say you put the demo file in the "cs go folder" do you put it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo and not C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive?

You need to put in in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo

i downloaded a CEVO match, and put it exactly where i was told, following your steps, but it will simply not let me watch it, it keeps saying in console that it cant open the file for reading

Is there a link to this CEVO match demo download so I can try it to see if it works on my PC?

not relevant anymore, but just delete all the spaces in the filename and the demo will play

I fixed this by typing "demoui" (Shift + F2) in the console and clicking on load. Then you choose the demo you want.
