• Cannot open a project in Windows Movie Maker after the backup in Windows DVD Maker

  I imported with success of media in Windows Movie Maker, Movie published by using Windows DVD Maker as a guest just so that I could see how it would look.  I was able to view what I had engraved on a DVD and was very happy about how he already produces.  When I returned to Windows Movie Maker and tried to open my project to continue adding multimedia elements to it, I can't open it - it tells me that it is not a valid file in Windows Movie Maker.  Can find my project in My Documents in the category Videos, I'm still not able to open it.  I wonder if I shouldn't have saved in Windows DVD Maker.  I hope that I'm not "all over again.

  I would greatly greatly appreciate it if anyone can help.  It is a very special project for a class reunion.

  This is the first time I used a forum so I hope I've submitted it correctly.

  Thank you!

  NancyLouse,

  Windows DVD Maker and Movie Maker store files with different file extensions.  This means that if you named the file 'file Movie Maker' and the DVD Maker 'file' file the real file names would actually file. MSWMM and file. MSDVD

  To display the extensions on all the files follow these steps:
  -Click on the ORB to start and Control Panel
  -In Control Panel, click Classic view in the upper left corner
  -Click on Folder Options, click view
  -Scroll to "Hide Extensions for known Types file" and uncheck this box

  The search in the folder now where you saved these files or use the search function, you should see the 2 different files.

  What version of Windows are you using?  If the Windows Vista Ultimate and the file has been deleted somehow you can be lucky.

  Vista Ultimate is a feature called previous versions.  To restore the file back to it's previous state, you can do a right click on the folder where the document has been stored (if the Documents may start, right-click on Documents) then go to properties

  -Click the previous versions and you will see the dates corresponding to previous versions of the file you are looking at.
  -Select a date and time that corresponds to when the file in this folder was in operational condition and double-click the file to open it

  Find the file in the folder newly open and drag the file to your desktop (be sure not to drag to the exact location where the file was initially as not to overwrite the file).

  I hope this helps

• Windows Movie Maker stops working after importing video MP4

  I am running Movie Maker version 6 and Windows Vista Home Premium. I imported my videos my camcorder Flip Ultra HD from Sony MP4. The clips will play in preview pane and I can edit in the timeline or storyboard table. However, after about 5 minutes of use Moviemaker stops working for no apparent reason. (Moviemaker stopped job searching a solution), is never resolved. It also stops working if I try to see my edited video. I downloaded Moviemaker Live, but it has the same problem.

• Windows Movie Maker, after the problem - red and green

  When I change my movie with Windows Movie Maker preview is fine, but after the publication of the project, the film is red and green. What can I do to fix this?

  I solved this problem. But I think it was because of the video quality of my webcam. Director of Windows try to enhance the video at the time of publication. So that's my new problem. Can I update my webcam as well?

  If the extension WLMP project only files are

• Using Windows Movie Maker on the error message XP__ not indexed _ bad quality

  I use Windows Movie Maker XP (version 2.1?).  I've converted and imported a lot of videos.  I have a group of short videos recorded the same day.  I (with free STROKE) converted to AVI and they play with no audio and several play accelerated.  I've then diverted to ASF and some of them imported correctly.  Most of them gave me an error message that they were not indexed.  I downloaded several things to remedy this from online forums: I uninstalled K-Lite pack codec, Expression Encoder 4, WinDVR AVI, DivFix, lame and a number of things.  That's a family movie, I spent a lot of time on it.  If anyone can help with my old hardware and software configuration at this point I'd appreciate it.  The original film seems to be of much better quality than what I am able to import.  Thank you!

  The most reliable video format for Movie Maker is. WMV.

  No guarantee... but the following freeware converter
  may be worth a try:

  You will need to unzip the file... or you could just drag
  the Setup.exe from the file out of the folder and drop it on your
  desktop and install from there.

  Once installed... Open Sothink and go to... Add the files button...
  Find and select the clips you want to convert.

  Next... in the encoding settings... Choose... Video credits.
  WMV - Windows Media Video (*.wmv).

  Choose an output folder and on the left, click on the button convert.

  You can experiment with other settings later but
  This should help you get started.

  Good luck...
