That never happened with the original Windows Movie Maker.Īfter the first download I got the 'Couldn't install programs - an unknown error occurred: Error 0x800c0006' message. Even if it is real, some functions do not work and it often gives an error message that a perfectly good video clip can't be added to a movie because a codec is not available. I doubt it's legitimacy unless Microsoft totally redesigned the program after 2012. I used the original Windows Movie Maker that I downloaded in 2010-2012 and this is a different program. I have used this program for about 15 years before they stopped supporting it. I am so thankful you are doing this as I have tried a few of the newer movie making things and they are too hard for me to learn. It does look a little different but I am used to seeing it on windows 8. I have yet to see if it uploads ok, but I am confident it will.

I downloaded the program today onto my new computer running windows 10 and so far it is running perfectly. Conversion services are an option, but it is very important to create what you want in your own local environment.I prefer to watch social science videos, but most of the time they are useful in audio form, so I use windows movie maker to extract the audio and listen to it on my mp3 media player. This is still the top-rated movie maker and video editor in terms of ease of use. I do earn a small amount of advertising commissions from the ads you will see placed on this website, which helps to offset my web hosting costs, but otherwise this website is here only to support video creators and hobbyists.

The download links are 100% genuine and I have absolutely no conflict of interest or incentive in promoting or linking to any illegitimate versions of Windows Movie Maker. I launched this website in 2017 to keep Windows Movie Maker accessible to users across the world even after Microsoft's decision to discontinue support for the product. Hi, I'm Steve! Thank you for stopping by.
