It says it's being saved, but it stays at 0%. Then it says can't save the
movie to the specified location. Verify that the original source files used
in your movie are still available, that the saving location is stil available
& there is enough free disc space available & then try again.

I'll just offer this (and I don't know if this is your problem); I've
learned that after you have created something with Moviemaker, you
better not delete, move, or rename a single file that is involved in the
construction of your project. If you do, you will get an error statement
just like the one you describe: "Verify that the original source files
used in your movie are still available." Deleting, moving, or renaming a
source file causes it to become "unavailable."

This is why I recommend that *everything* you use for the project should
first be moved into a single folder before it is included in the
project. That makes it easier to manage and particularly easy to edit if
you want to change elements of the project at a later time. It also
protects you against the possibility of accidentally deleting, moving,
or renaming a file that was used in your project, causing it to crash.
