Troubleshooting

The common snags and how to get past them.

“Windows protected your PC”

The installer isn't code-signed yet. Click More info, then Run anyway.

A missing DLL or the AI engines won't start (Windows)

Install the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime. The Welcome screen's system check shows a download link when it's missing.

A video stopped halfway

Open Auto or Queue and press Continue. Everything finished so far is kept.

Not enough footage was found

  • Use a concrete topic: a place, an event, a machine, an animal.
  • Paste a few YouTube links you have rights to under Your footage.
  • Leave scene images on: they fill any sentence without a good shot.

Script writing is slow

Your graphics card may be too small for the selected model. Try Qwen3 4B in Settings → AI models, or choose Performance in Settings → Performance.

Not enough disk space

Each 10-minute video takes 1–2 GB while you work on it. Use Clean cache in Settings → Storage, or move projects to an external drive.
