Solved: Can't import .wmv files into Windows Movie Maker
I converted .MOD files to .wmv files & renamed the clips as .wmv. The clip plays fine in Windows Media Player, but when I try to import it into Movie Maker, it says "file cannot be imported". Help please! I bought the handycam so I could make movies of my new grandson & Movie Maker is usually so easy.

This line confuses me a little. Did you convert them, then rename them with a wmv extension? Or is renaming them how you converted them?

Hi Derek. I figured out that the converted file were sent to a folder other than "my videos". Once I found them, everything worked fine. I'm new to this video thing - thank you for your reply.
