Question asked on Jun 30, 2016

Hi,

Just joined so please take it easy with me.

I have previously used various windows packages, most recently XP then to 7 and now upgraded to windows 10, the latter being as advised by Microsoft.

So, now having lost the facility to create the families holiday DVD'S, I had to download "windows essentials movie maker". I have the following issues.

1, I cannot create the DVD in a format that will play on our DVD player. It works fine on windows XP and 7 DVD creations. The DVD i do manage to create will play on the PC/Laptop, cannot find what is wrong....any ideas? please.

2, As I get better at creation of projects within movie maker, I seem to have older project creations sitting in the "File". Please can you advise how I delete these unwanted versions.

General note, why did Microsoft remove this great functionality from their recommended windows 10 project and not specifically tell us, hardly customer friendly.
