How trim a video in windows 11 without losing quality?

Yeah, the Photos app is totally the way to go if you just need to do a quick trim. It's built right into Windows 11, so there's zero need to download anything extra. It's perfect for learning how to trim a video without any fuss.

If you want to know how to trim a video in the most straightforward way possible, this is it:

Step 1: Right-click your video file, choose "Open with," and select Photos.

Step 2: Once it's open, click the "Trim" button (or the video trim icon) at the top.

Step 3: A screen will pop up where you just drag the two sliders at the bottom to choose where you want the video to start and end.

Step 4: Hit "Save a copy" in the top right, and your new, trimmed video will be saved as a brand new file. Your original video stays untouched.

So, for a simple trim, the Photos app is a quick and totally free tool that's already on your PC.

Sometimes, the app just doesn't have the right to save the file. Make sure the video file itself isn't set to "Read-only" (you can check by right-clicking it and going to Properties) . Also, try running the Photos app as an administrator to see if that helps.
