Windows Movie Maker is a tool I always looking on Windows 7 when I think about editing video. It’s free, easy to use movie editing tool with lots of handy features. Though we have Windows Live Movie Maker for Windows 7 which is also free but lack of feature like DV export and a true timeline. Due to compatible issue we avoid using Windows Movie Maker 6.0 in Windows but now you can get it in Windows 7. Thanks to Windows Movie Maker Installer.

OFF TOPIC: what is your current web host…, ?
I used Windows Movie Maker before and I liked it because it’s easy to edit the video clips. But for some reason, I stopped using it because hubby started using another program for video editing. It is called Vegas, don’t know if you’re familiar with it.
The new Windows Movie Maker is great but I guess if you are looking for more flexibility and power, you need to cash out some bucks to upgrade to Adobe Premiere products

@Marlene: Vegas, the name is new to me.
@Michael Aulia: You are right. That’s why I use Techsmith Camtasia Studio.

Thanks dude. This saved my live. I was so angry that Microsoft didn’t put WMM in Windows 7. Thanks once again
Dear Benjamin,
Microsoft has flakcatchers assigned to field complaints about WLMM.
Windows 7 users have been telling them they want the timeline feature in WMM2 and WMM6 restored in WLMM.
But these flakcatchers shine everybody on. They pretend to listen, but do nothing.
Unbelievable.
Oh thank, i try it and it works, really thanks, i’m so happy.:D
But i have one probelm: When i encode my movies, i can’t encode it in HD (1280*720) 720p or 1080p. I work of course on Windows 7.
Anyone has the same problem?
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’VE BEEN DYING TO GET THIS AGAIN!
Ahh I hate Windows Live. May it burn in Electronic hell
Thank you! This works for me on Windows 7! I tried Windows Live Movie Maker and the quality is just not as good as the Vista Movie Maker Version 6. So I am so excited to have the Vista version back.
What I found that works for me in Windows 7:
1. Create your movie as you would in Vista Movie Maker, adding your media files, effects and transitions. Remember not to move the location of any media files that you are using for your movie. If you move the location of the files, the program won’t be able to find them when creating the movie. When you open the movie again you will hav an X over the file. You can click on the X to locate the file again.
2. Save your file. Save your file before you Publish your movie. If you remember, Vista automated all this for you, saved your file, opened DVD Maker and added your movie file. You have to do it yourself now.
3. Select- Publish your movie to Your Computer. This saves your movie as a file that can be added to Windows DVD Maker. Make sure you make note of where you are saving your file. I found that it does not work if you publish to DVD as you did in Vista. For some reason it deletes everything in timeline and storyboard if you select- publish to DVD- the file is not supported in DVD Maker. So do not select Publish to DVD.
There are various formats that you can select when publishing to you computer: Best quality for this computer or make a selction from the drop down menu for DV-Avi, Widescreen etc. Make the selction that suits your needs.
4. Once the movie is published to your computer, Open Windows DVD Maker and Select -Add Items. Locate your file. It will be the file name that you saved your movie as with 001 after the file name. Mine showed up with an extension 001. When locating your file, you may have to select -View all files- in the drop down box, in order to see your movie file. Select your movie to add it to the Windows DVD Maker. In a short time you will see your file in the DVD Maker. You cannot load the saved movie file, you must load the file you Published to Your Computer in Windows DVD Maker.
5. Select -Options- if you want to change the format 16:9 or 4:3 and whether you want to loop the video or have the Menu at the beginning or end of the show.
6. Click Next and customize your menu.
7. When you have everything as you want, put in a blank DVD and select burn….then wait for your masterpiece to be completed!
Just another quick note, Have you ever had the problem of only seeing a black screen when creating your movie? Seems like it just disappeared? I found that I had a major overlap in the timeline. Expand the timeline as far as it can go and look to the overlap that is causing the black screen. It worked for me and my movie reappeared.
Thanks for your feedback Kate.
You are welcome!
And Thank you again for posting this Movie Maker Installer. I tried a different Movie Maker installer program for Win 7 from another site and it had a Trojan in it.
I had no problems with the installer that is linked here and had the program up and running in minutes. How wonderful!
Thank you so much. Not sure what those guys are thinking when they removed the timeline. Appreciate the download.
I hacve windows 7 home premium on my computer. can I down load it from your download site as would a regular software down load. I also have wmm 2.6 on the computer I am not understanding how the two can work togeather please explain. Thanks so much
You can download it and you can use it along with WMM 2.6. Just run the installer and it will do the fruitful.
Thank you for this, I will be installing it once I download it… I am hoping it is the 64 bit version. If it is not the 64 bit version could you possibly post that here too?

The installer support both version. Good to see, you like this radio station.
LOVES YOU!
