@Adriana right click your layer, choose "properties". On the bottom you will now find a button: "style". Click it and choose "load style". Commented Aug 30, 2020 at 17:17

Yes, I did that, however, the file is not showing on my folder in order to open it, I'm thinking it has to do something with what it says on the instructions: "To use the style, please copy together with paper_texture.png file to your folder and replace in .qml file the folderpath of the paper_texture.png file", since I did not do these steps and just saved as, and I do not know how to "copy together with long file and replace folder path. thank you for your help– AdiCommented Aug 30, 2020 at 17:28

1the png is referenced in the qml to "F:/styles/paper_texture.png" you will need to edit that location for your own pc local drive (c:/ or d:/) "paper_texture.png" so it can load correctly– Mapperz ♦Commented Aug 30, 2020 at 19:07
