Hi there! I understand that Movavi Video Editor 26 starts up but doesn't fully open for you. Let's try to get this sorted out together.

First, to clarify, when you say it "runs line underneath but won’t open all the way," do you mean the program's window doesn't fully appear, or it stays minimized or stuck on a loading bar? Any additional details, like error messages, will help me guide you better.

In the meantime, here are some initial steps you can try:

1. Restart your computer: Sometimes a fresh start resolves temporary glitches.
2. Run as Administrator: Right-click the Movavi Video Editor icon and select 'Run as administrator' to ensure it has the necessary permissions.
3. Check for Software Updates: If possible, make sure your Movavi Video Editor is up to date. Since it’s version 26, double-check the latest patch or update in case this is a known issue.
4. Close background applications: Sometimes other programs can interfere. Close unnecessary apps and try to open Movavi again.
5. Check Display Scaling Settings: On Windows 10, high display scaling settings can sometimes cause window display issues. Go to Settings > System > Display and check the scale (try setting it to 100% to see if this helps).

If these don't solve it, we can try resetting the program’s settings or reinstalling it. Let me know if you've tried any of these already, or if there are any additional symptoms. That way, I can help you with the next steps!

The beginning when it first opens a line runs underrneath but won't open to the editor screen

Thanks for clarifying that when Movavi Video Editor 26 starts, you see a line running underneath but it never fully opens to the editor screen. Let’s try a few focused steps to get it running properly:

1. Ensure the app isn't launching twice: Sometimes the app could be running in the background preventing the new window from fully opening. Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager. Look for Movavi Video Editor, and if you see it running, right-click and choose "End task." Then, try to open the app again.

2. Restart your PC: If you haven’t already done so, a restart can clear stuck processes.

3. Run as Administrator: Right-click on the Movavi Video Editor shortcut and select "Run as administrator." This gives necessary permissions that might unblock startup.

4. Check Display Scaling: Since sometimes window display issues happen due to scaling, go to Settings > System > Display and temporarily set the scale to 100%.

5. Update Graphics Drivers: An outdated or corrupted graphics driver can cause UI problems. Check your GPU manufacturer’s website (e.g., Nvidia, AMD, Intel) for the latest Windows 10 drivers and install them.

6. Clear Movavi Cache and Temporary Files: Corrupt temp files might cause startup issues. You can try cleaning Movavi’s cache — but the exact location varies, so I can guide you through that if needed.

7. Reinstall Movavi Video Editor: If all else fails, uninstall Movavi completely via Control Panel > Programs and Features. Then download and install the latest version from Movavi’s official site. This often fixes deeper installation corruption 1 6.

Please try those and let me know which step you’re on, or if you encounter any trouble during the process. We’ll work through it!

I tried all these fixes. and movavi doesn't show up in task manager

Thanks for letting me know you’ve tried those steps and still don’t see Movavi showing up in Task Manager. That tells me the program might be failing to even launch its process properly.

Here are some next-level things to try:

1. Check for Corrupted or Missing System Files: Sometimes Windows system files needed to run apps properly get corrupted. You can run the System File Checker tool:
- Press Windows key, type cmd, right-click Command Prompt and choose "Run as administrator."
- Type sfc /scannow and press Enter.
- Let it complete and fix any issues it finds, then try launching Movavi again.

2. Try Running Movavi with Compatibility Mode:
- Right-click on the Movavi shortcut or .exe file.
- Select Properties > Compatibility tab.
- Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select "Windows 8" or an earlier version.
- Also check "Run this program as an administrator."
- Apply and try launching again.

3. Install the opengl32.dll File Manually:
Some users reported that missing or faulty OpenGL libraries can prevent Movavi Video Editor from launching, sometimes showing a loading line but nothing else. Downloading and placing an appropriate opengl32.dll in Movavi’s installation folder might help. I'd be happy to guide you through this if you want.

4. Temporarily Disable Antivirus/Firewall:
Occasionally, security software blocks apps from launching properly. Try temporarily disabling your antivirus or firewall and test Movavi launch again. Just be sure to re-enable your security software afterward.

5. Check Event Viewer for Application Errors:
- Press Windows key + X and select "Event Viewer."
- Look under Windows Logs > Application to see if any error related to Movavi appears around the time you tried launching it.
- This info can help pinpoint deeper issues.

6. Clean Up Registry Entries for Movavi:
If there was a stubborn or corrupted registry entry tied to Movavi, it might block startup but require careful handling. Since this is riskier, I'd recommend this only if you're comfortable or with supervised steps from me.

If none of these work, it could be a deeper compatibility issue or data corruption, and contacting Movavi support at [email protected] with your system details might be the next best step.

Let me know if you want help with any of those steps! I’m here to walk you through it. Are you okay trying the system file check or compatibility mode next?
