Windows 10: Movie Maker crashed, says it has 116 files in the latest saved version . . .

. . . but when I open it, the only file showing is the first picture, then nothing.


Is there anyway to restore the other 115 files (in which I had combined video, sound, and jpeg files) so that I don't have to do all that work I had done getting it all looking the way I wanted it?


Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi Dave,

My name is Douglas and I am an Independent Advisor. I would like to help you. Let's try the following suggestions, please:

Open Windows Movie Maker on your PC. Add desired files and after editing of files are done, click Go to "File">"Open project" to import your Windows Movie Maker project files. Then, drag one of files to Storyboard, and at last, click “Save movie” tab and select
“For computer” option. You'll find the file can be saved in WMV format.

Note: This option is not available on Windows 8 or 10 version of the OS as it does not have Windows Movie Maker installed.

Step 2: If WMV files are already present on your PC, you can directly open Windows DVD Maker to burn files to disc. From the main interface, click “Choose photos and videos” and then hit “Add items” to add the files that you want to burn. The bottom panel will
show the available time on DVD disc, and will also allow you to change its title. In order to change DVD parameter settings like aspect ratio, burner speed, and others click “Options”. Hit “Next” to proceed.

Step 3: Select the DVD menu style. The menu can be customized and its text can also be changed. To see the changes, click the “Preview” button.
