I know and understand that Movie Maker 2.1 is included in SP2, BUT I
am still having trouble.

I installed SP2 when it first came out, years ago. I never got MM - it
never appeared in the Programs list, or in Add/Remove Windows
Components section, etc. - not to be found.

I tried using Windows Update (as I do frequently) but nothing is
pending. SO, I decided to download 2.0 and THEN see if Windows Update
would try to update it. Again, nothing.

So, I am in a state where I have SP2, don't have MM 2.1, and can't
seem to force Windows Update to get it.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Bob

Bob may I suggest you post in a newsgroup better suited to those running
XP and MM 2/2.1 such as microsoft.public.windowsxp.moviemaker rather than
this group which is for those running Win Me that includes the earlier
MM1.

However are you sure you don't have a ..:\Program Files\Movie Maker folder
containing the file moviemk.exe? If you do that is movie maker and all
you need do is create a shortcut to that file and then use the shortcut to
launch MovieMaker.

Oh gosh Mike - dumb check! I posted to the wrong newsgroup. I will
fix.

But, I certainly did not have a Movie Maker folder in PF until I
installed 2.0.

Thanks for the help.

Every time I click the "moviemk.exe", in "C:\Program Files\Movie Maker\", WMM
opens its main window, but at the same time WXP displays the error message:

"Windows Movie Maker has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are
sorry for the inconvenience".

The "Send Error Report" option, just does not work, since I never had gotten
any feedback from Microsoft.

Then I decided to get a help from this Forum. I am not sure if it would be
necessary to add the "Technical Information" about this error report. But
since I am really confused about what should I do to fix this problem, I
included this information, despites its large amount. I would be very
grateful for any possible suggestion to fix the WMM error. Thanks in advance.

If this doesn't help, post back, but in the windowsxp.moviemkaer newsgroup.
