Microsoft provides a built-in video editor on Windows 10 – Windows Movie Maker, which is just like iMovie on Mac OS X El Capitan. Due to the openness of Windows 10, it can be installed on some devices with old hardware. Here comes the problem. The video editing work in Windows Movie Maker requires quite high hardware. So if the hardware of your Windows 10 PC is too low or old, then Windows Movie Maker won't Work. And a message like the picture below will pop up.
In order to prevent this issue from happening to you, please make sure that your Windows 10 computer meets all necessary requirements before launching Windows Movie Maker. To let you edit videos in Windows Movie Maker with no problem, I would suggest you to upgrade the hardware of your Window 10 PC to meet the necessary requirements.
If the issue mentioned above still persists and the solutions offered above didn't solve the problem, the best way is to look for an alternative to Windows Movie Maker, such as Pavtube Video Converter.
