  1. Windows Live movie maker (old version) is no longer available, at least I can’t download it. Something else downloads instead!!!
    Is there an alternative to Windows Live? One that operates/works in the same easy basic way please?
    Thank you for your time.
    Regards, Keith.

  2. Windows Movie Maker is not available on Windows 10 anymore and personally, I like freemake and hd video converter factory because I’m a novice on video editing and all I need is some basic editing features like cutting and merging. A straightforward program is the best!

  3. VG-
    None of the video editing apps you have suggested are available. Can you suggest something else?

  4. My favorite software for video editing is “Shotcut”, it’s free and open source video editor, only video editor that properly support older hardware configuration, also support audio editing, my according there is no better answer of Shotcut video editor if compares in free category.
