I'm not sure what you mean by 'fix' .avi files on Movie Maker. I can only assume you are having difficulty opening/viewing/importing that type of file. So, if you are not able to import an .avi file into the program, there are two options:

A:

Download the K-lite Codec (Basic) package for free online. This codec pack will enable you to open many file name extensions (and derivatives thereof) that your system can't otherwise open. It is a safe download and will save you a lot of headaches.

B:

Convert the .avi file to another extension Windows Movie Maker uses:

asf, dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, .wmv

Free video converters are available online. Simply Google: free video converters. Download and install one of your choosing. Then, follow the conversion instructions ensuring your 'Output Source' Format is one of the file name extensions listed above.
