FilmForth

If in search for a Windows 10-compatible free video editor, FilmForth is your best option. You can download it directly and safely from Microsoft’s store, install it seamlessly on your Windows 10 desktop, and start enjoying its many effects, filters, and editing tools.

Complete with a timeline and the option to edit both the video and the audio streams, it’s an excellent tool to turn your home-made videos into pro-looking movies.

The program’s interface is both attractive and easy to navigate. Its dark-colored design enhances the viewing experience and makes the color and contrast of your videos look brighter and sharper. Apart from direct access to your video projects, you will find on its main window links to a set of miscellaneous Quick Tools ranging from a DVD player to a screen recording utility or an MP3 extractor, together with quick access to some other tools directly related with the program’s video editing capabilities.

Once you open a project or decide to create a new one, you’ll find all those capabilities listed on a convenient ribbon at the bottom side of the screen. From there, and with just one click, you can jump to the split, trim, crop, flip, or rotate functions; change the selected file’s playback speed; meddle with the volume of its soundtrack, change it for a new one, or remove its audio altogether, as well as add a wide variety of video effects and filters. The rest of the interface is left to a well-sized video player and a terribly useful timeline for you to jump from one stream to another quickly and in the most intuitive way.

Playing with all of these options and functions is incredibly easy and straightforward. You won’t need to be an expert to start enjoying its many capabilities, and you’ll be astonished with the results. The timeline will allow you to mix different tracks in a single stream, as well as play with different audio tracks and effects. All is done via slides and other easy-to-manage controls, making this Windows 10 tool suitable for all kind of users.

When it comes to exporting your movie to the most suitable format, you’ll find an overwhelming set of output options, not only in terms of supported formats (JPG, BMP, GIF, MP4, MKV, M2TS, AVI, WebM, etc., for the video and MP3, M4A, WAV, or WMV for the audio, among others) but also in terms of output quality, ranging from 3 to 17 Mbps.

All in all, I can’t think of a better option for your home-video editing. All you need is a Windows 10 license and a lot of free time to learn and enjoy the program’s extensive functionality. For a free tool, FilmForth is probably one of the most complete video editors you can add to your W10 set of tools.
