Windows 10: Missing music from Windows 10 Video Editor Photo App

There are a few locked discussions on missing music from the Windows 10 Video Editor, most of them give misleading information.


I struggled to find out why the only music I had was Happy Beat and took ages to find a solution.


After a lot of searching I found that you need to install Microsoft Photo Add-on from the Microsoft Store.


This add on gives numerous free background music tracks.


I hope this helps someone.


Ignore the well meaning suggestions to repair, fix, troubleshoot or uninstall. Just find the add-on and install it.

Video editor in Photos app?

I just downloaded the Windows 10 update, had heard it would have a built in video editor, but I can't find it. Photos app lets you upload photos, and create videos, but not upload videos to edit as far as I can tell. Am I missing something?

 

Default Windows 10 Video Editor App (Photos)

Hi everyone,

I recently tried to do some video editing in the default Windows 10 video editor, Photos. I inserted a music file for my video. However, I can not seem to remove the fade-out effect Photos automatically sets to my music. Is it possible to remove the music
fade-out setting in Photos? If so, how is it done?

Thank you!
