    Can I stop Windows 10 from upgrading itself - No more Movie Maker


    The latest upgrade that Windows 10 did, eliminated Windows Movie Maker and Windows Photo Viewer. I used both programs all the time and really miss them. I know that the new "photo" program has a lot of features but it does not replace both programs very well. I reinstalled a previous version of Windows 10 using Macrium Reflect and now have my Movie Maker and Photo viewer back. But I know that very soon Windows is going to want to upgrade and I will lose both programs. Any suggestions on how I can keep these programs without constantly reloading a backup version of Windows 10.

    Thanks in advance

    Windows 10 V. 1809

    :)

    Hi Vernon,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I apologize for the inconvenience caused. We are glad to help you.

    Repair the Movie Maker.


    • Type Programs and Features in the search bar and click on the first selection.

    • Under Programs and Features, "Windows Live Essentials" is listed. Highlight and click "uninstall/change" at the top to get the repair dialog.

    • The repair actually applies to all the installed components of the Essentials package, including Movie Maker.
