• 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.

  Film format and then import them saved. WMV to DVD file
  Manufacturer and add other source files.

  Sounds like your project .mswmm files is corrupt.
  Maybe you're trying to make the project too complex

  Next time you have a project open... try to publish in

• Why are there no sound on some of my downloaded on Windows Live Movie Maker avi files?

  Using Windows Live Movie Maker for the first time (already used Windows Movie Maker) and have added a number of clips from my computer, all the files AVI, taken on the same camcorder. When I go to change about half have sound and the other half have no sound. Volume on my computer and WLMM is high for all the clips but makes no difference. Have tried to remove one of the clips, no sound and add it back, but makes no difference. All clips will play direct using media files Media Player, but those with no sound have also no sound if I open it with Windows Media Player.

  Really frustrating!

  Any ideas?

  Thanks for your reply.

  I've updated everything is available in Windows Update - although there is nothing specific to sound. It made no difference.

  I also checked HP for updates - but none was necessary.

  After doing some googling more, I downloaded the K-lite codec pack which fortunately solved the problem in Windows Media Player. Although he did not no difference for WLMM - so now posted a request in this forum - fingers crossed!

  Thanks again

• Windows Live Movie Maker error Code: 0x80004005__

  When I try to open Windows Live Movie Maker from my list of startup programs, there is a quick flash on my screen, and then the error Code window appears telling me that WLMM had to close and try again from, it. Then this error code is present.

  I am able to open and start Messenger, Mail opens (although I do not use it), Live Call said it's "not available at this time", Gallery of photos and writer, both work very well.

  I wondered if maybe that Movie Maker will not open because I'm in Win 7 and have Windows DVD Maker installed natively with the operating system. I'm probably wrong thinking it, but I was wondering.

  Anyway, the idea is to open Windows Live Movie Maker. Any thoughts on what could be the problem would be really appreciated.

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer

  ===================================
  First of all, a simple solution... ask your friend to save
  the Movie Maker project in the. WMV video format
  and send it to you... so you can run it in Windows
  Media Player as you would any other video clip.

  More info...

  If your friend has sent you a "project file" for Movie Maker...
  It will be with the extension .mswmm or .wlmp...
  useless, unless you have copies of all sources
  ... of photos, video clips, audio files. Also you
  will need a version of Movie Maker that is compatible
  with the project file.

  There are several versions of Movie Maker and the
  project files are not retro-compatible.

  Just to clarify... a Movie Maker project file is not
  a video file... it is simply a text file that records the
  path to the source files and saves any changes that
  Used effects and transitions.

• problems with windows live movie maker

  I made a video Windows live Director. He sent to myself, I am unable to watch it on any computer except the one on which I made the video. What should I do?

  This is a real video with the. Film WMV extension?
  Or is it just a movie maker project file .mswmm?

  A Movie Maker-.mswmm project file does not include the
  source files... (Picture files, video Clips, music)... it's just
  records the position that they are saved in your hard drive.
  Basically, it's just a recipe for a movie. And... is useful only
  for a re-release in Movie Maker.

  Use a video converter and convert your .mov to wmv format. Re-import into Movie Maker.
  It should work fine now.

  What do you mean "I'm done with Live Movie Maker as editing in Windows Movie Maker was not possible." I have two in my computer, and I prefer to use WMM instead of WLMM.
