CLIPCHAMP – Windows Live Movie Maker replacement?

On 26th June 2017 I posted about the loss of the excellent free video editor from Microsoft – Windows Live Movie Maker (WLMM) .

Recently, I heard that Microsoft had purchased the video editor Clipchamp.

Initially, when I looked at it, I discovered that the free tier was very restricted and, if you wanted more, a subscription was required.

However since then, Microsoft has improved the functionality of the free tier. Whether or not it is a complete replacement for WLMM is hard to say, but at least it is a move in the right direction. Also, don’t forget that the Win 10/11 Photo App has a video function.

I must admit that, after the loss of WLMM, I have used iMovie on my MacBook Pro.
