How do I convert mkv to mp4 on my HP laptop Windows 11?

Converting an MKV file to MP4 on your HP laptop can be a breeze, but there are a few common missteps that can trip you up. But don’t just grab any random converter off the internet. Some can be sketchy, or worse, just flat-out don’t do a good job. Often, you may not pay attention to bitrates or resolution, thinking you can just hit “convert” and forget it. Wrong! Always check your settings. If you go too low on those, your video will look like pixelated mush. 

MKV files can have multiple audio tracks or subtitles. If you don’t adjust audio settings, you might end up with a silent movie or a different language track. Double-check you’ve selected the correct audio before converting.
