^ Trying "System Restore" to the earliest point first.


Seems like the Win 7 AIO CD I just burned was a coaster.

Okay, okay. I tried to use "Crackz" or "Warez" to get the Watermark off software to convert MOV to MP4. (I produce videos.) I am still looking for decent FREEWARE to do this. So far, I am using Prizm..

I managed to "Reset" my PC - and keep Windows 10.

I fixed it.

Seriously? The watermark is there because it is someone else's intellectual property and copyrighted. If you want to consume the fruits of someone else's labor, pay for it and not steal it. There are plenty of freeware converters though. Try Any Video Converter https://www.any-video-converter.com/...or_video_free/

No I think she's saying she's using a free editor that puts watermarks on videos before you buy the software.
The one Oceangaia recommended is good.

No, what? How is that different than what I stated? A developer puts a watermark on videos before you buy the software because they want to be paid for their work. And there's nothing wrong with that. Have you ever been paid for your work? Attempting to remove the watermark by some other means is attempting to enjoy the benefits of a paid license without actually paying for the license.

Easy sister.
I though you thought she was downloading video and wanting to pirate that.
I think she is using software that she wants to pirate.

I'm not cool with either of these things.

If that's what I had thought, then why would I have recommended a freeware converter that does not remove anyone else's watermarks just doesn't add it's own?



In any event, both are piracy and can be included under "fruits of someone else's labor".
