I think it is doesn't design for windows 7. It is doesn't suit for windows 7. However you can download it from www.download.com for free forever. Get a software that better than window movie maker.

that can be the reason but they can launch new version for windows 7 like Windows Media Player they are huge difference in Windows Media player in xp and in Windows 7, just like that they could invent or upgrade Windows Movie Maker. we can get Freeware software on Download.com and we can get trial versions as well. I am looking for a good alternative for Windows Movie Maker.

You can download the latest version (free) from Microsoft here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-live/movie-maker-get-started However, this version is NOT the same as the one included with Vista and earlier versions of Windows. It is based on a different code and has a different functionality. You can also look for and download version 2.6, which is widely available free from many download services. For more information on the somewhat complex history, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Movie_Maker_2.1.4026.0

You may like to investigate the free alternatives mentioned here: http://www.brighthub.com/computing/windows-platform/articles/12883.aspx I have no personal experience of them, so I can't make any recommendation beyond what is on that page.

It's in StartAll ProgramsWindows Movie Maker.. you may also try to locate it by using Help.. and if you can't really find it, maybe it was uninstalled so you have to download or reinstall it again..

The movie maker is actually a part of the Windows Live Essentials now together with the MSN Messenger. Just search for Windows Live Essentials, perform the download and it will provide you a selection of what to install. It will include the Movie Maker.
