 | Windows 7 and Movie MakerHi everyone, I have a new computer running Windows 7 home premium 64bit, and the "old" version of movie maker I am used to isn't there! MS have apparently got rid of it and released windows live movie maker to help "beginners" with video editing. It's complete rubbish - it doesnt' even have a timeline! I want the old movie maker back, and was wondering if anyone knew where or how I could get my hands on the old Movie Maker 6. Any help would be much appreciated  |

| Would Cnet or download.com not have it? Or is it one of those things that you have to pay for if you don't get it with your OS?

| Nope, its not there. The only one they (cnet) have is 2.6, the old XP one. I don't think you can buy it either.. It just seems wierd that it was on vista and then its not on 7... and annoying! Its such a step back its unbelieveable! Last edited by Moofassa; 02-01-10 at 06:06 PM.. |

| Why not have a look and see if there's an opensource alternative?
