Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com Sept. 11, last week, Microsoft began to launch a modern photo app on Windows. Although modern photo apps have many new editing tools, remove the built-in "video editor" and replace it with web-based Clipchamp.

If users try to open the video editor built into the old photo app, they will see a new pop-up window that says "Microsoft Video Editor is no longer available in photo apps."

Microsoft said, "Microsoft video editor is no longer available in photo apps. Your previous video projects can be accessed by downloading the Photos Legacy app in the settings, and for new videos, you can use Clipchamp to unleash your creativity."

Microsoft wants everyone to use web-based Clipchamp instead of the old video editor. CTOnews.com noted that the company had previously warned of impending changes through a notice on Windows 10, as shown in the figure below.

In a statement sent to Windows Latest, a Microsoft engineer also confirmed the launch of the new photo app and replaced the video editor with Clipchamp: "this update does not include video editing, but users can use Clipchamp to edit videos-this is a free, powerful, user-friendly app with a variety of tools and effects to make your videos shine."

Clipchamp is a web-based application that runs in a Microsoft Edge WebView container, similar to Microsoft's previous Movie Maker tools. Movie Maker no longer exists, but Microsoft is recommending Clipchamp to meet all users' video editing needs. Unlike Windows 10's video editor, Clipchamp has many advanced editing features.

Some people prefer Windows 10's video editor because it is easy to use and its encoded video is much smaller than Clipchamp. Although you can still use the video editor by downloading Photos Legacy, Microsoft is likely to delete the video editor in the future.
