Is there *any* way to still get movie maker in Windows 10?

So I just got a new Windows 10 computer (actually built it) and found out that it didn't have movie maker. So, I looked up how to get it, and found that support for the suite ended on January 10th. All of the discussions and posts I find about it link to the Microsoft website saying you can still download it, but either Microsoft decided to play dirty and remove the download, or I am doing something wrong. Can anyone help? I tried using Openshot but it isn't as useful and I need to use movie maker for a school project.

MSFT killed the offline installer download links yesterday. After scouring the internet for awhile I found what seems to be the only non-MSFT download link on the internet (aside from the Google Drive link posted below), at MajorGeeks. I'm going to try and install it now to make sure it works.

There's another mirror of the (en-US) Windows Essentials offline installer here...

Spent all night trying free video editors. Why the fuck are they all so complicated? Even the "simple" ones? Jesus. Makes me really appreciate Movie Maker and HATE MSFT for making it this hard to get atm. I mean its seriously blowing my mind how much faster I can trim 3 clips and throw them together with an audio track on Movie Maker (on my home PC which I'm not at) compared to what I've dealt with tonight. Fuck.

Does this still work? When I scan it with Windows Defender it says 2 files scanned....why 2?

Still works! Thank you!!

Oops. Looks like Movie Maker is no longer working. Up until last week I was sharing the install file with a few of my students who did not have movie maker. This worked fine up until Today.

I got the live essentials version from the link provided but it didnt have timeline so i found an older version that works and has timeline but it gives a codec error for files created with a gopro, any suggestions
