  • Error when you try to open a Windows Movie Maker. MSWMM file: cannot be opened because it is not a valid windows movie maker project file

    Help! Says the file can't be flat, .mswmm file, but the program made the film.

    I used the Windows to make a film, I scanned 458 pictures, done my book of stories, etc. with music - took a month... I "published" and now when I go to open it it says ' cannot be opened because it is not a valid windows movie maker project file? But the Director did, now I can't open it to all, it has an .mswmm file extension! Help, it's a gift for my dad who is going to be 70 and I have not yet a month to make it again!

    Hi, I'm having a similar problem but have 1 idea as to why I can't open my .mswmm file. I have two xp machines running sp3, but a pro and a home edition if it matters.

    the file.mswmm I am trying to open was created on the moviemaker version 2.1.4028.0 and it still works fine on this machine. On the xp pro machine, he is Director of windows 2.1.4026.0.

    So I try to install the movie maker 28 to my other machine I have a lot of files created with the 28 I want to be able to change on the other computer.

    =============================================
    The project .mswmm file is best to use the system that created
    because it takes all the source files... Video clips, Photos, music
    files... always be available at the original location.

    Moving from one computer to another can work if you move as best
    all of the source files. When you open the .mswmm file you will see
    Xs red instead of thumbnails of the source but if you right click the red Xs
    You should be able to navigate to the new location of the files sources and re-
    establish the path.

    My computer has virus of the FBI, I wiped it is clean but now it cannot connect to intermet because it can't find the network driver how can I find it?

    Since you have formatted the PC and reinstalled Windows, your question will be handled better in the hardware forum space and drivers for Windows 7, so I'll move it there.

    Apparently, you need to install the driver of your PC network. If you used the CD to restore the PC manufacturer that should have been included, but it may be on a 2nd CD with drivers and programs.

    If not, the first thing to do is contact the PC manufacturer to see if they have a driver available for download. If the PC has a wireless network card and wired, perhaps one has been configured, but not the other and you try to use the not yet detected and installed.

  • my windows media cannot read a file because it does not support the code, with which it has been compressed. What program is best to open it

    the file is BHS1_Dwayne.rpc
    I'm confused why I can't open it. Is there a way I can change the file type or use a general program

    Hello

    You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

    (a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    (b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

    Windows media player will play only files, if it supports this type of file.

    Please see the article which gives you information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316992

    If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.

    Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.
