Q&A: Windows Movie Maker Glitching Up, Help me please, ITS DRIVING ME INSANE!!!?

Question by Rai UchihaHA: Windows Movie Maker Glitching Up, Help me please, ITS DRIVING ME INSANE!!!?
Okay, I’ve been making movies and stuff on Windows Movie Maker for a while now, and now everytime I open it, if I even move my mouse A LITTLE it’ll freeze up and it says it needs to close. So everytime I open it up, I have to wait like 10 seconds before moving the mouse, and I have to move it VERY SLOWLY or else it glitches up. I can’t add pictures and stuff quickly or else it’ll just freeze up and crash again. And it just keeps getting worse every time. I don’t want a new movie making program, I want Movie Maker fixed! Please Help. And also, NO LINKS TO A FORUMS WEBSITE.
It just freezes up everytime I put my mouse over something, and then closes. OR if I move my mouse too quickly it freezes.

You probably have a collection or picture with a filename that is too long. Just try booting the program up without opening a project, and delete files like that.
