  1. Is background music built-in Photos app has someone's else copyright?


    Hi,


    I have created a video with the help of Microsoft Photos in Windows 10 Home. I have used the in-built background music Microsoft provides by default. Once I uploaded that video to YouTube, I got a copyright strike due to that background music. What does that mean? I can't use the background music provided by Microsoft?

    :)

    Copyright on music in Windows Photos app

    Can someone answer this question fully, I have been making youtube videos with said background music and have been getting copyright claims against them. The claimed music and background music don't share the same names and I cannot even find the "original"
    song that I am copyrighting. You'd think that microsoft would make that music copyright free, but we'll see.

    Copyright on music in Windows Photos app

    Using the built-in Video Editor in Photos (which is awesome, by the way), it's possible to add background music to video clips.

    I was intending to use this for a short work-related presentation, but a colleague queried the licence on the music - are there any restrictions on the use of the background audio? There do not appear to be any licence restrictions mentioned in the tool
    itself.

    Many thanks.

    PS Another similar query was unanswered in December:
    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/all/music-copyright-in-windows-video-editor/2eff8f90-6628-4312-8b19-e8e470570191


    I can confirm that the Video Editor is definitely available in Windows 10 Enterprise (1909) - just search "Video" and it's the first option for me.

    EDIT: I have just realised this is part of the Photos app! I have amended the title and category to reflect this.

    EDIT2: Now I know it's part of Photos, I have found a similar question from March 2019:

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/is-the-music-copyrighted-on-windows-10-photo-app/0c8f3afc-b9d1-4f15-a826-2b563cb18c7e


    The response provides some more information (i.e. that this is part of Windows Story Remix), but does not provide a clear indication of who owns the copyright and under what licence it is available for reuse.

    Microsoft Video Editor app background music copyright

    I used Microsoft photo/video editor app background music in one of my video which I uploaded to YouTube, later YouTube marked this video music copyright issue. I believe all the background musics in this app are generic, free to use, please let me know
    what should I do? currently I have 60K views on this video. BTW, this video is about composting with kitchen waste. Thanks in advance.
