Sorry, Movie Maker can't start. PROBLEM SOLVED

Error you get when you click on Windows movie maker

This is the annoying error you get while trying to open Movie Maker.

"Sorry, Movie Maker can't start. Make sure your computer meets the minimum system requirements before trying to start Movie Maker again, and then try to update the driver for your video card if Movie Maker still doesn't start."

As said I tried updating my video card driver but it was already upto date.

The Microsoft Support said that the new versions had some bugs in it and it affected some graphic cards.

Here are the Solutions that will work out:

Soln 1: Update your graphic card. HERE are the LINKS for the drivers. 

Soln 2:  Offline Install of Live Essentials 2011 not 2012 . In this LINK go to Show all and select Vista and select english (though your using Windows 7 ) as shown in the image. The download will start. The file size is 214 mb.

Once the download is complete, uninstall Windows Live Essentials from the Control Panel (How to Uninstall Windows Live Essentials) and then Restart System.

After Restarting Install Movie Maker from the freshly Downloaded Installer File.

Soln 3: Recommended . This worked for me.

5 Simple Steps:

Step 1: Download the offline installer of Live Essentials 2011 as mentioned in the Soln 2.

Step 2: Create a new USER ACCOUNT on the system with ADMINISTRATOR privileges (How to create admin Account)

Step 3: Uninstall Windows Live Installer from Control Panel. (How to Uninstall Windows Live Essentials) Now Restart System.

Step 4: Login to New Administrator account that you created in STEP 2. Install Movie Maker from the freshly downloaded file as mentioned in Step 1. Once you start the Installer Select USE RECOMMENDED SETTINGS.

System Fix - A virus/Malware/Randomware--BEWARE

This is a malware and not any program to fix your system. It connects to the internet and asks them to buy the product to fix all the fake system errors it provides.

symptoms:
1) The background turned to black.
2) The only two desktop icons left are "My Computer" and the "Recycle Bin".
3) The "Start" menu, "All Programs" and all the folders in "My computer" are completely empty.
4) A lot of message boxes appear on startup saying stuff like "Failed to save all the components for the file xxxxxxxxxx. The file is corrupted or unreadable.". Even if u close them, the same amount of messages appears at once after a couple of minutes.
5) A legit-looking program called "System Fix" appears on its own, pretends to scan the computer and detect a number of "Critical" errors with the hardware and software and also pretends to be able to fix some of them. Finally, it claims that it's a trial version and prompts the user to buy a full version to fix the rest.

Many of the solutions that were on the web dint work out except this one
