Catfish Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I open up Movie Maker, and almost instantly get the system message saying Windows Movie Maker has encountered a problem and needs to close blah blah blah. It has a debug option, which I click, and the program just shuts down. Everything else on my system seems to be running good and as it should... I've run several checks for viruses, etc and from what I can tell I'm clean. Any ideas out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Orr Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Go to the Windoze update page and download the newest version.. Just out. To hell with the old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catfish Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 already done that part - my machine is set for auto updates, and everything's up to date and MS support won't let me reinstall anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Orr Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Control Panel - Add Remove Programs- Delete/Remove Movie Maker and then go to the webpage and reinstall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catfish Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 I tried Merlin's advice last night - I don't have the option on add/remove programs to get rid of movie maker, the system won't let me delete it outright from the program file because it says the program is in use by me (and it's not) and in addition, there's no way to get the stupid movie maker file off MS update page because I've already installed SP2, which is what they're saying movie maker is installed with. Gads. Any advice Mikey?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFD Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Make sure you click on "Remove Windows Components" in the delete software section. It won't be showing initially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwmiket Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 I'll slap together some suggestions and email them to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
