If you (like me) have recently plugged\u00a0a DV camera into Windows 7 for the first time, only to find that the “Import Video” wizard you’re used to from Windows Vista has vanished, fear not!<\/p>\n

How to get the Import Video wizard back:<\/h4>\n

Rest easy;\u00a0the wizard is not dead forever, but merely moved from inbox Windows to the Windows Live Essentials pack.\u00a0 Here’s how to get it working just like it used to:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Install the Windows Live Essentials<\/a> pack.\u00a0 In particular, you are going to need at least the Windows Live Photo Gallery<\/strong>, and probably the Windows Live Movie Maker<\/strong> if you want to then do something with your video.<\/li>\n
  2. Plug in your camera.\u00a0 Windows 7 should automatically install the necessary drivers.<\/li>\n
  3. Launch Windows Live Photo Gallery (not Movie Maker).<\/li>\n
  4. Click File<\/code> -> Import From a Camera or Scanner<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  5. Select your device, then click Import<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You’ll now see the Import Video wizard you’re familiar with.\u00a0 Voila!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
