I use Vista Ultimate, which includes the Moviemaker application to edit videos. I had no problems with this program till a couple of months ago when it crashed. Afterwards the program would not start when launched. In the Task Manager the process would be listed, but no Moviemaker was visible. Looking around in the Internet I found a way to start it with the command "moviemkr.exe /safemode"; I also tried the advice of deactivating some of the codecs used. To no avail: The above command doesn't always work and only once when it does (after the program is exited the system must be rebooted to start it again). However most of the time the program just does not start, no matter what. I've tried all the tricks of the trade (booting in protected mode, launching application as administrator, tinkering with the registry).
The big obstacle is of course that the application is part of the operating system, so that I cannot just re-install it (I wonder what is the advantage of having such applications being part of the OS). Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
BL
