QVD Not Reading Correctly

Good day 

Not sure if I'm missing the obvious here but I'm trying to store a QVD and retrieve the data in another app.

This is all done through Qlik Cloud.

Whenever I try and store & load a QVD that I generated it seems it cant read the file.

Running this test script I realized its struggling with the QVD, but the TXT file works.

 

Any ideas why the QVD doesnt load properly?

 

Script

DATA:
LOAD * INLINE [
Name,Space,Amount
John,Up,100
Jane,Down,200
Jimmy,Left,300
];

Store * FROM DATA into [lib://DataFiles/test.qvd] (qvd);

Store * from DATA into [lib://DataFiles/test.csv] (txt);

DROP TABLE DATA;

DT:
LOAD * from [lib://DataFiles/test.qvd];
//LOAD * from [lib://DataFiles/test.csv];

You need to specify the file-format by storing and by loading the data - means:

DT:
LOAD * from [lib://DataFiles/test.qvd] (qvd);
