Import Video From Your Computer

If the video files you want to edit are already saved on your computer, it's easy to import them into Movie Maker. Movie Maker accepts most video formats for import, and then converts everything to Windows Media Format.

Select Import video from the Capture Video menu. This opens a window that lets you browse for your files.
