Windows Movie Maker Live may be good for bare bones basics – it’s a simplified (dumbed down) version of Movie Maker due to user feedback according to Microsoft. Microsoft had moved Movie Maker, Email, Messenger and Photo Gallery to a new web based collection of apps known as Windows Live Essentials.
Microsoft had stopped development of Windows Movie Maker after Windows Vista so I hadn’t used it in a few years. Stumped by limitations of Windows Movie Maker Live I went in search of an alternate free video editing program.
