Hello George Aldridge,

Thank you for posting to the Microsoft Answers Forum.

Windows 7 does not include Movie Maker with the operating system.
Click
here to download Winodws Live Movie Maker from the Windows Live Website.

You can use the software that comes with your webcam to capture video and then import it into Windows Live Movie Maker for editing and enhancements.
If your webcam didn't come with video capture software, you can use free software applications available for
you to download to do such tasks.
You can find a list of webcam video capturing software from a search on the internet.

The wording and options have changed in the different version of Movie Maker for the way to get the video from camera to the computer.
See below:
Record (get video) with Movie Maker 1
Capture (get video) with Movie Maker 2.1
Import (get video) with Vista versions MM6 and MM2.6
Import (get video) with Windows Live Video Acquire Wizard

The Video Acquire Wizard in the Windows Live Suite is the default for importing in Windows 7.
When the camcorder is plugged in and turned on in VCR mode, it pops up to start the importing process.  The file created is a type I DV-AVI.
When the import session
is finished, Photo Gallery opens automatically and shows the thumbnail for the new clip.
Windows Live Movie Maker doesn't have the collections feature of MM1 thru MM6, it uses the Windows Live Photo Gallery as the collection library.
You bring the clips into
Windows Live Movie Maker as needed for a project.
This is the usual and preferred way to get video from a mini-DV camcorder into Windows 7.
The Windows Live team uses the WLXVideoAcquireWizard in the Photo Gallery folder, something designed to work in Windows 7 (and Vista).

Hope this helps with your question.

Thanks,

• Users must select the appropriate ISO, either 32 bit or 64 bit, depending upon their individual computer.
• Extract the ISO file to a separate USB device or burn the program to a compact disc.
• Run the Microsoft Windows 10 upgrade directly from the software that you have thus created.
