Windows Movie Maker

[Maurice Grant]

Have just reloaded Windows Home Premium, but although Windows Movie Maker files were saved and reinstalled, when I open these only title cards are still there, all pictures added are shown with a red cross as is added music. Where did I go wrong, and can the situation be retreived?

Hi, Maurice Grant, and welcome to the forums.

Were your pictures and music saved on a different drive? If so, is that drive letter and the path(s) to pictures and music the exact same as before?

...I have an OEM version of Windows which is saved to a partition on C:\ drive ...(D:\ drive) When reloading you automatically get a 'Backup' folder which contains ALL files that were previously on C:\......this is what I transferred back to C:\User\User\My Videos....thanks for your help...so far!

Did you use the *exact* same username as before?

....good point...but I must answere NO! Initially the file was in C:\users\USer\ (my name....which I had spelt incorrectly!)
When I copied the file it was exactly the same path but I had rectified the fault in the spelling. Could this be the problem?
I have a copy of the home movie on a DVD...ccan this be copied and how? Manythanks for bearing with me...
