Best Answer

It depends on what type of camera you used. You can check by right clicking and clicking properties to see what type. (Your camera might automatically create the files as MP4s.) If you clicked "make movie" on movie maker, it usually saves the movie as an mp4 file, although you can change this. In order to save the movie for further editing you must simply click the "save" button. If Movie Maker still doesn't want to open the file try renaming it as a wmv file.
