Windows 10: Microsoft says you can transfer videos via Phone Link's Photos app,, but the Photos app...

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/learning-center/how-to-transfer-videos-from-phone-to-computerAre the instructions on that and other official Microsoft web pages just plain wrong? Or am I doing something wrong? All I know is that when I try and follow the instructions for using phone link and the photos app inside phone link to transfer videos from my phone to my PC in windows 11, it doesn't work because the photos app doesn't show one single video,. It only shows photos.My guess is that at one point those instructions did work but Microsoft dropped the video support from the photos app

Photos app - trim a video - error

Hello, I am trying to use the built-in Windows 10 Photos app to trim a video. I have the video playing in the Photos app and click "Trim Video" at the top. I move the sliders to select the start and end points. I click "Save a copy" at top-right. The app says "It looks as though you don't have permissions to save changes to this file. Try saving a copy instead." Having just clicked "Save a copy", I am confused as to why this error message is appearing. I've tried copying the .mp4 to my VIDEOS folder on C: drive with the same result. Some research has suggested to run the Photos app as Administrator, but I can't figure out how to do that. Any suggestions on how to trim a video would be appreciated! Thanks,
