Windows 10: I am trying to put my exported video onto a USB but it keeps saving as VPB as opposed to...

I am trying to put my exported video onto a USB but it keeps saving as VPB as opposed to MP4. How to I change it to MP4 so that I may take the USB to have the video made into a DVD? I have clicked on "finish video" in the upper right hand corner which then gives me the option to export but does not give the choice of MP4. I completed this without the USB plugged into the computer. After 13 hours of export time it is saved to my Photos Legacy. I do not see the option there to save it to a USB either.

troubled by vpb

I am a tech-novice.

I have created a video project using Microsoft Video Editor. When I "finish" the video, it saves as a vpb file, which is inaccessible to those who I need to show it to. How can I save it as an MP4 file, or convert the vpb to MP4.

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand the issue that you are facing while exporting a video. We will need the following information from you to help you further:

• What happens when you try to save the file with a different name?
  
• What are the troubleshooting steps that you have tried?
  

As per the description in the screenshot, firstly, I would suggest you to close all other instances of Photos app and then try exporting the video.



If that doesn’t help follow the steps mentioned below:



Method 1: Using a different file name



You can try using a different file name and see if that makes a difference.



Method 2: Saving in a different location



I suggest you to try exporting the file in a different location and see if you are able to export it.



Method 3: Creating a new video



If the issue persists, you can try creating the video from scratch and check if that helps.

Windows Video Editor

Hello. I have put together a 2 hours video and exported it using the Windows photos video editor.

It took so long exporting. After 12 hours, it came back with an error message.

I have a back-up video but it has saved as a VPB file.

1. How can i export the video?

2. How can i open the VPB file?

Thank you.
