Publishing a Movie You CANNOT save a.MSWMM (Microsoft Windows Movie Maker) file to a flash drive or any other removable device. The.MSWMM file must first be "Published" (Vista version) or "Finished" (XP version) in the WMM program before it can be viewed in a media player, ed, uploaded or burned to CD/DVD. This finalizes the project by means of "mixing down" audio/video properties.

Publishing a Movie Movie Maker files that are not Published or Finished can only be viewed/edited in the Windows Movie Maker program. Here are instructions on how to Publish/Finish your WMM project so that it can be saved to a flash drive or other portable/removable device: With your project in the time-line view of WMM Click on the Movie Tasks Pane, go to Finish Movie and Save to My Computer.

Publishing a Movie When the video is published/finished, you should be able to find it in the folder you saved it in. Click on it and it should open up in the media player you use. If it does, you have successfully Published/Finished the project.
