    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,

    While using Photos Video editor, it hangs all of a sudden, but saves

    @gabgab -

    Have you exported your projects and uninstalled and then reinstalled Photos?

    If that doesn't work there are some free programs out there that can be a substitute.

    Windows 10 photo edits video with Slow motion, cannot save

    I was trying to edit video with Photo slo-mo function. Everything went smoothly, however when I click save. It pops up error with "Something went wrong, please try again". And then the save windows did not pop out, and I could not save the edited video.
