Microsoft is changing how Clipchamp—the built-in free video editor for Windows 11—works. The program now requires video projects to be saved to Microsoft’s OneDrive cloud storage service in order to continue editing them, reports Windows Latest . Previously, users could save their project files locally on their computer. If you choose to store them locally now, the projects are archived instead, meaning they can no longer be opened in edit mode. To continue working on them, they must first be saved to OneDrive. In practice, this change means that Clipchamp no longer functions fully without OneDrive synchronization. New projects created in the app are now automatically saved to the user’s OneDrive account. According to Microsoft, the media files themselves (such as video clips and images) don’t necessarily need to be synced to the cloud.
