After I made my original article entitled "Video editors for my YouTube channel of fans" from a while ago, so it's time for the major update about how's going on with the current state of certain video editors that I ever used, specifically on my current laptop that I'm using right now. Even if the video editing software programs are almost similar to what I also explained in my aforementioned titular article about them, they did have some major changes from one way to another, ranging from how it performs in general until all the way to certain tasks that I must do in order to make them survive. There are also some of the brand new ones that I ever used, which I also explain them particularly in here too. Without further ado, here is my latest update about how's going on with those video editing programs that I ever used, particularly dedicated for my YouTube channel of fans (and so for my other channel that I own too, if I needed to):
A. Stock Windows 10 video editor
First off, remember the time I edited majority of my electric fan videos using this particular basic video editor that comes freely with my laptop's current version of Windows 10 since I newly acquired my laptop that I'm particularly using right now? Well, those were the days yet I occasionally use it these days, even if it lacks certain things that video editors usually do have as what I clearly stated in my original article particularly about it... However, every single time I open the app itself recently (which is obviously bundled with the Photos app), it will soon-to-be defunct due to the fact it won't be included soon, even if it's still clearly available at the moment. Instead, they recommended me to install Microsoft Clipchamp once it disappears soon, which I will explain particularly about it later.
B. Capcut
Believe or not, Capcut has it's own PC port particularly about it since last year, because I sometimes edit my own videos literally using the mobile version of it in my current phone. So, I took the opportunity to download it from the official Capcut website, because somebody said it was a perfect video editor dedicated for certain computers or laptops with mostly potato specifications (including my current laptop). I logged in using my own account that was integrated with Tiktok, then I edited bunch of my own electric fan videos using it. The results about how I edited them using it felt 11:12 to that one of Adobe Premiere Pro, albeit with vastly different user interface, which was their obvious ByteDance's pride. It was really a great experience of me using it thanks to how fairly great the results that it delivered on all of my video footages that I edited and exported particularly with it, until I encountered certain amount of problems while I'm specifically editing them with it on my laptop that I'm currently using right now.
You would think if Capcut will work smoothly in my current laptop with it's own specifications that I'm currently using right now? I would say both yes and no. The word "yes", it had plenty of cool features just exactly like the mobile version of it, so I would edit them with it easier, unlike how I had to struggle myself all the time with my fingers particularly on my own phone... On the other hand though, the word "no" literally states about how it performs specifically on my laptop with it's own specifications that it has. It may worked just okay as what I expected, but sometimes it would drop frame rates while I'm playing my own edited videos on it. Well, that's the tip of the iceberg about how it performs then, because it also made the matters WORSE once I updated it to the latest version. It lagged, stuttered, and dropped frame rates frequently than before, which made me nearly impossible to do so. Even the mouse's cursor also partially lagged and stuttered during I tried to edit everything on it too... Which means, the results about how it performed particularly on my current laptop did perform partially similar to how my ancient short lived 13" Dell laptop that I stupidly bought it online in 2020 with Adobe Premiere Pro 2015 that was installed on it, or I tried to run VSDC on my old Samsung laptop right before this one with it's own older potato specifications that it had.
C. Microsoft Clipchamp
Well, this is literally the prime reason about how come if that particular stock Windows 10 video editor that was bundled with it's own Photos app will soon-to-be defunct. Even if I didn't export anything from this particular video editor yet, I ever tried to edit my own video footages briefly in here, and it didn't seem to work that well on my current laptop that I'm using right now, almost exactly in similar fashion to what I did with the Capcut. It also lagged, stuttered and dropped framerates if I put too much pressure into it. Which means, I don't think if I'm able to edit anything on this particular video editor anyway. It also made the matters worse, there are no specific options in order to make it less lagging or stuttering while I'm editing on it at all.
D. Microsoft PowerPoint (2019 version)

| (i just made my short animation using it) |
Yes, you aren't kidding. Microsoft PowerPoint does have a feature to export any kinds of presentation slides to video files. This particular feature actually existed since the 2013 version of the said program itself (according to the research particularly about it somewhere else). As for my own experience of me using it, I made certain of my presentations in there, both basic presentations, minimalist animations, and enhanced picture slideshows, respectively. In order to make the perfect video out from series of themselves, I must set certain animation timings in all-out full-auto (for example: transitions between two slides, object animations, play audio or video files in specific amount of delay that they have, etc.). Yes, it did export presentation slides just reasonably okay, but it had minor flaws specifically about how I put some music tracks or sound effects on it (minor cut-outs with any kinds of music tracks that I put in there, and minor lags with any kinds of sound effects that I put in there too).
E. VideoPad Video Editor (current version), but...
After I left the older version of it due to the fact I rarely editing my own videos using it from several years ago (despite it would work decently on my current laptop, thanks to how I checked the minimum specifications about the whole video editor itself on it's own official NCH website particularly about it), I decided to revisit it by downloading the current version of it officially from the official NCH website itself, and I took the opportunity to test it by editing my own videos on it in particular. While it performed just fairly okay on my current laptop, and it exports my edited videos just fairly good considered how pretty much on-point this particular basic video editor was, it had one major problem: I actually downloaded the unlicensed trial demo version of the whole video editor itself! Which literally means, I MUST enter a registration code in order to unlock it (or imagine if I'm wealthy, I would buy their full licensed version of the said video editor itself), otherwise I wouldn't even able to use it anyway once the trial expires. That's basically it; there's NO absolute way to use it at all unless if I would able to search the fully unlocked version of the said video editor itself online, or even those pirated registration codes that commonly available everywhere online to casually unlock it, which still didn't keep it anyway once I close it then I re-open it again. F***
Well then, there you have it for my latest update of the video editors that I ever used, dedicated for my YouTube channel of fans (and so for my other YouTube channel that I own too, albeit if I don't have any contents to upload yet at the moment). I don't think if most of them would work properly, specifically for my current's laptop's specification that it has. Not only just those, I also dealt with one of them that was literally unusable in the first place, it's because in order to make it fully usable, I MUST f****** do their own certain pay-to-win feature to do so in their official way. Right now, with all of the flaws that almost all of the video editors that I already tried specifically on my own laptop that I'm particularly using right now, I'm looking for another lightweight video editor that will work just okay on my own laptop with it's own "modern day potato" specifications that it literally has. Anyway, if you already know about the perfect video editors that may work decently on my laptop that I'm using right now, please let me know particularly about it in the comments, unless if you still didn't take a look at the specification of my laptop that I'm currently using it in one of my older articles that I made from roughly 2 years ago... Thanks for reading this update article that literally explained about them, and hope you can pay full attention when it comes to dealing with one or few of those out there with your corresponding computer's or laptop's specifications that do you own, unless if you already purchased certain ones with excellent specifications, which I guarantee if most of them will work just great on your own.
