    Windows Live Essentials 2011/12 ....Win 7/8/10 ....and Movie Maker


    I have two older desktops with "Windows7 Home Premium" on them. The version of "Movie Maker" contained within "Windows Live Essentials 2011" on both these towers seems to work the same as the version contained in the "Live Essentials 2012" suite that I am currently using on my laptop ….which is running Windows 10.


    Is there a difference between the version of "Windows Live Movie Maker" offered within "Windows Live Essentials 2011" and the last available version of "Windows Live MovieMaker" that came in "Windows Live Essentials 2012" ....or are they essentially the same program?

    :)

    windows movie maker on win 10


    I installed the Windows Essentials 2012 Movie Maker back when my PC was running Windows 7 then subsequently took the free upgrade to Windows 10. At install (the shortcut's date matches the creation date of the Windows Live directory in Program Files) Windows Essentials 2012 created a 'Movie Maker' item on the Start menu. It's still there in the 'all apps' list under 'M' for 'Movie Maker'.

    Maybe 'create a link on start menu' was an option during setup? I can't remember, it was years ago.
