Any free alternatives for Movie Maker on Windows 11?

Using ClipChamp is shit. I managed to crop the screen capture, but trying to trim is a nightmare - and saving it wants to put it online. I want to save to my SSD.

the title suggested you're looking for a video editor, but i got a bit confused when 'screen capture' was mentioned. are you after a video editor, or just something to trim screen captured footage? if the former, shotcut is as good a freebie as you can find. there's also davinci resolve if you want to put a bit more time into it.

My 18yo son gave me a tongue lashing when he recently saw me using Clipchamp trying to edit some dashcam footage.

He downloaded Capcut instead. I've only used it once though so no real feedback to offer aside from I found it reasonably intuitive.

If you can't laugh at yourself then you probably shouldn't laugh at others.

There are videos on YouTube showing how to download and install Movie Maker on Windows 11.
