Task: Windows Movie Maker Alternatives

Instructions:

Windows Movie Maker, Microsoft’s free video editing software, has been discontinued and is no longer available. Some companies are capitalizing on this gap and offering software that masquerades as Windows Movie Maker, prompting users to pay for it. If you come across an offering for Windows Movie Maker, it is most likely illegitimate.

There are several free alternatives to Movie Maker.

For a simple tool that behaves much like iMovie, OpenShot is an open source video editing tool available at https://www.openshot.org/

If you require a more complex editing tool geared toward professional editing, Black Magic offers a free version of DaVinci Resolve. Visit their official website.
