Hey Week, I just used it (windows video editor) yesterday AND AM VERY PLEASED..
Look up the 28.01 minute tutorial by Kevin Stratvert on utube--great directions.

OpenShot is what I use. Free, and plenty capable for what I do. A friend of mine tried it on my advice though and it was really glitchy for him. I have not had any issues though. So take it for what it is worth.
