Windows 11
will incorporate a new free video editing software
, well almost. In its latest Insider build (22572), the Redmond firm introduced Clipchamp, a video editing tool that was originally a web application before being acquired by Microsoft last year.
The American giant will therefore take advantage of this acquisition to offer a new video editing app to its users, as Windows Movie Maker was in its day.
A free video editing app, but…
Clipchamp offers an interface similar to professional tools but with features that are easy to learn. We therefore find all the classic functions of this type of software, such as the possibility of cutting video clips, of embedding animated texts, or of integrating transitions and other effects. An option to capture the PC screen and real-time content via a webcam is also included, knowing that the application offers integration with OneDrive to quickly save its projects and import content stored there.
The editing software also provides access to an extensive catalog of audio and video tracks and royalty-free images. Very nice features for a free application, but there is necessarily a catch. Without a purse, Clipchamp will only export its videos in 480p. It will then be necessary to count 9 dollars per month to hope for 720p, and 19 dollars monthly to access 1080p. Those who would like to turn to the Premium version and its unlimited storage options will have to pay 39 dollars, also for 1080p.

- Graphical redesign of the successful interface
- Improved Snap
- Effective anchor groups
To be completely honest, Windows 11 seems to us to be a good evolution of Windows 10. Beyond the very marketing aspect linked to the surprise effect (Windows 10 was presented as the last of the last, remember) and to the essentially graphical redesign of the interface, the update brings a bit of clarity and modernity that are welcome after six years spent with an OS designed to reconcile Microsoft and its audience. We also like the discreet details that make it more functional, such as the improved snap and anchor groups, or even the refined management of virtual desktops. Finally, we are really convinced by the redesign of the Microsoft Store. By agreeing to return to the exclusivity reserved for UWPs, Microsoft is effectively hitting where it is not expected and finally compels itself to catch up on Apple and Google.
