Quick movie-making

You're in control

Customizing your movie is simple with easy-to-use editing tools. Trim your video clips to show only the parts you want. Add titles, transitions, music, and effects like panning and zooming.
Improved editing

Make your photos come to life

You don't need video to make a movie. Make great-looking slide shows using your photos and music, and Movie Maker's editing tools. As the music plays, watch your photos glide across and zoom in to show close-ups of the stars in your movie.
Slide show creation

Premiere your movie on YouTube

Publish your movie on YouTube right from Movie Maker. Or share your movie with friends and family in a variety of other ways—including DVD.*
Web publishing
*DVD burning is dependent on Windows DVD Maker, which is only available in some editions of Windows Vista and Windows 7.
Depending on how your computer is set up, you may see a few security messages before installation begins.
  1. Where you see a company or publisher listed in a security message, make sure the company name is Microsoft Corporation. If so, then it is safe to click Run, Continue, or Allow.
  2. The installer will open. Select the programs you want to install*, and then click Next.
    *Previously installed Windows Live programs will also be updated if you don't have the latest versions installed yet.
  3. Sit back and relax, or do other things on your computer while you wait. Installation shouldn't take more than a few minutes on a broadband connection.
  4. When it's done, you'll find your new programs in the Windows Live folder on the Windows Start menu.

If your installation doesn’t start right away, check the system requirements, or click Try again.
Trying again downloads a standalone installer to your computer. This takes a little while, but may work better, depending on your connection settings.
