Can I Get Movie Maker On Win10 Again?

I had a system disk crash and had to build the whole thing up again.

All sorts of things going wrong.

One of them is Movie Maker. I now find I can't get it. Can't even get Windows Essentials that it was part of.

I saw a MS post said use 'photo' app but a look at that didn't seem to offer any movie making functionality.

Often when things are discontinued like this one can still get and run the old version and I'm hoping I can do this with Movie Maker - only I'll need a safe site because apparently there's a whole raft of places now offering Movie Maker and it's a con, they're traps.

Any wisdom on that, guys?

Here's an archived copy of the original WindowsLive Essentials 2012 on my Onedrive. Bear in minds that only Movie Maker and accompanying Photos Gallery are functional and some have had install issues after a clean install. But you're welcome to it to try. If not a Onedrive User and greeted by 'Sign-in', simply hit Back button and download -

Why not try ShotCut instead?

Shotcut Is A Windows Movie Maker Alternative | Next of Windows

Most certainly will. Am downloading it now. Thanks for that.

Will also get Movie Maker back if I can just because I'm like that: love to hang onto my old favourites. Talking of which I've found Picasa has sprung back to life again ! wonderful.

Thanks much. Done it. I wonder if there's a way to just quote a section of a post rather than the whole thing?
