Hi, since the current version can't trim videos inside the app, i'm trying to use Windows 10's built-in Photos app to do so. However, i'm getting an error when I try to trim it in the app ApplicationFrameHost_2022-02-01_15-56-30

None of the file permissions appear to be different, compared to any other video I check.

Note that there is no different option to save it as a copy. in fact, before this error happens, i am asked to save the file as another item anyway.

Just tried to open the video in Premiere Pro, when I drag it into the timeline, there is no sound. not even an empty audio track, just no audio track. Audio works fine when playing the video in VLC

Hello! This has most likely to do with the encoding that the video is downloaded in. You can try selecting another encoding, if you enable the Show available codecs to download setting. All the way at the bottom.
