Unable to Download Movie Maker |
|
|
All of the Microsoft.com "Download" pages or Movie Maker say that Movie Maker
2.1 is included in XP Service Pack 2 (which I successfully downloaded months
ago), but I do not have Movie Maker on my machine anywhere. Is there
another step to the downlaod / activation process?? Do I need a prior
version to get 2.1?
Thanks. |

You may be correct, but just as an
experiment...type or copy/paste the
following at...Start / Run...and press
enter.
moviemk.exe
Also...if you right click your My Computer
icon...and from the menu choose...
Properties / General tab...does it say
Service Pack 2 below...System?

John:
You were right... running the .exe directly worked. Thanks!!
I guess I should have said "I can find Movie Maker anywhere on my system".
Seems a bit strange that there wouldn't be an icon installed for MM when SP2
is installed. Or maybe there is and I'm not looking in the right places?
Thanks again...

You should find the MovieMaker folder
at: C:\Program Files\Movie Maker
If you right click the moviemk.exe file
you can send a shortcut to your desktop.
(Sent to / Desktop {create shortcut})
Also you can drag/drop the link in your...
Start / All Programs list.

3 different partitions on this system.

Hi John
MM is in the appropriate path. I've put it into Start>Programs. Puzzled as
to why it wasn't there!!
