Before I wrote my post I'd already tried to uninstall Wondershare and whilst it's been removed from the list, it still continues to show on task manager when I restart. There's also a folder in my C drive (C:\Program Files (x86)\Wondershare\WAF)

that does all the unistalling process without the need to do all those steps manually. In fact, if you do it manually, you will left behind many references in the windows registry that should also be cleaned manually, and that's a very risky process.

Wondershare has been busy adding features to its flagship video editing app over the past year. As with most creative software of late, generative AI features have arrived in Filmora. Here are some highlights among the new additions:

The previous version brought a slicker interface with new layout options, as well as new AI-powered tools like Smart Cutout tool, audio stretch, audio denoise, adjustment layers, more powerful keyframing, mask drawing, and loads more stock content.

Filmora sells as a subscription for macOS or Windows ($49.99 per year) or as a permanent license ($79.99). For $59.99 per year, you can get a cross-platform option that includes macOS use and mobile apps. New effect collections are added every month for subscribers. Licensing the software requires creating an online account, and you activate and deactivate computers through your web Account Center.

You can get a free trial download of Filmora, which lets you export footage only 10 times and puts a Filmora logo on your exported projects. The trial has other limitations. For example, you need a paid license to get a bunch of effects for your video projects and 24/7 technical support.

The software, which is strong on support for older operating systems, can run on Windows 7 through 11 (but I don't recommend running outdated, unsupported versions older than Windows 10) or macOS 10.15 to 14. You need at least a 2GHz Intel i3 CPU, 8GB RAM, and at minimum an Intel HD Graphics 5000 or Nvidia GeForce GTX 700. Support for Apple Silicon processors is now native. Filmora takes up 1GB on my test PC, which is in the middle range for this type of software. Adobe Premiere Pro takes up 3.3GB, while Movavi Video Editor Plus needs only 285MB. Note, however, that Filmora downloads some content and features on-demand as you use them.

The Full Editor view resembles that of most video editing applications, with a three-panel layout for source content, video preview, and timeline across the bottom. You can now switch the layout using a button in the top-right control group, with choices for Default, Organize, Timeline, Short Video, and Classic. No matter which layout you choose, the program has a clean, simple, and dark interface, with intuitive icons. You can switch between black and light gray window borders, and the program respects your system's dark or light mode setting. You can put the video preview into full-screen mode and adjust the relative sizes of the panels.

When you start a project, you have a choice of Widescreen, Instagram (1x1), Portrait, Standard, or Cinema aspect ratios. From File > Project Settings, you can set a custom size if you like, as well as choose the frame rate.

The number of tracks looks limited at first, but whenever you add another video clip below your main one, another track is added so you can keep overlaying. As with the Connected Clips in Final Cut Pro, these added clips in new tracks move in sync with the main track above them. It's a great way to keep your effect overlays where you want them. PiP (picture-in-picture) works easily, with WYSIWYG resizing handles in the preview.

The program lets you use a magnetic timeline approach, which you can turn off with a button over the timeline. Whenever you drag a clip onto the timeline, it snaps right to the previous clip, so there's never any empty space in the movie. Auto-Ripple is on by default to keep your movie gap-free, but you can turn this behavior off, too. Trim from the start or end of a clip, and the current position line shows scissors, letting you easily split the current clip.

A plus sign on each clip lets you easily add it to the timeline at the insertion point. In addition to the timeline view, there's a Storyboard view that simply shows clip thumbnails, with spots for transitions in between. Helpfully, tracks on the timeline show audio waveforms. Right-clicking on a clip reveals an abundance of options, including scene detection, auto beat-sync, auto reframe, AI Vocal Remover, and more.

Filmora doesn't yet generate videos from scratch using generative AI, but it does have a bunch of new AI tools to ease the editing process. Two that sound similar but are quite different are AI Text-based Editing and AI Copilot Editing. Here's a quick look at the two:

The AI Text Based Editing tool opens a new window that shows blue track clips representing parts of a clip containing speech. Dragging the blue text clips around splits and moves the part of the video that contains the text. Adobe made a splash with a similar feature in Premiere Pro last year. The Filmora tool has a handy button that removes any silent parts of the video. It also lets you search for spoken words to shunt you right to the part of the video where the word is being spoken so that you can move, trim, or delete it. In my testing, however, it wasn't perfect, cutting off some speech.

This new tool is a chatbot that makes suggestions for your editing. It doesn't actually perform any actions, and it is more of a help resource. In most cases it provides a link to the relevant online help page, and if you're lucky it will present a button to take you to a feature you need. Mostly though, it seems more like a preprogrammed chatbot than a generative AI tool.

Filmora's new AI image generator, in beta, took longer to create a landscape that I described than most of the other generative AI image-creation tools I've used. But it did produce a pleasing enough image.

If you need to make spoken presentations but are a bit camera-shy, this cool feature is for you. You get to the Avatar Presentation tool not from within the editing interface, but from the welcome panel. The first step is to place yourself in the camera view to match the avatar. You can use a teleprompter and add PowerPoints, screenshares, photos, or videos to your presentation. You can also add a pointer and text in the Avatar Presentation tool. It's a thorough tool, with a full-body mode and the ability to switch from camera view to full content view. You can choose from four 3D avatars and 11 2D ones, or load your own VRM models. It comes with a selection of backgrounds, or you can use your own image file. Zoom and panning transitions are at your disposal.

As mentioned earlier, creating PiP effects is easier than before, and you can move and resize PiP windows right in the video preview by clicking on the appropriate timeline clip and dragging the crosshairs in the middle of the edges and corners. Chroma Key (aka green screen) worked very well and automatically for my test footage even with frizzy hair, which can often be difficult to mask.

You can just scribble on it and the whole object is selected. You then click the Smart Cutout button, which runs through the video, basically doing motion tracking with the object selected and the background removed. As is typical with these tools, you can erase or invert the auto-generated mask. You can also adjust the brush size, edge thickness, and feather. The Advanced mode just lets you control the tracking direction. In my test, the hair wasn't perfectly selected, but that's standard for any of these tools, even those from Adobe, and if you overlay it over a video background, the result looks pretty good. I appreciate that you can go back and edit the mask and tracking after the fact.

Related is the new AI Smart Mask, which places vertices around the video image to create a mask, as shown below. But unlike the Smart Cutout feature, AI Smart Mask produces static masks, so if the subject moves, the mask no longer fits.

When Keyframing appeared in an earlier version, you could only use it with position, rotation, scale, and opacity. Now, like Pinnacle Studio, it lets you time pretty much any effect or transformation with keyframes. It's easy to add keyframe markers from a timeline toolbar button, and you can drag them around in the timeline after placing them on it. A new Keyframe panel shows all your keyframes in a line graph, where you can move the keyframe makers around to change where effects occur.

You also get Adjustment Layers, a very Photoshop-sounding concept. In video editing, it means you can create a set of adjustments that you can apply to multiple clips, not unlike the nodes in DaVinci Resolve.

The Smart Denoise tool could come in handy for very noisy shots, but it tended to blur more than I'd like in testing. It does offer sliders to adjust Threshold (basically strength) and Radius (size of particles), but it's not at the level of photo denoisers.

Adding titles and text is a snap, and Filmora includes more than 200 well-designed text and title templates, some with cool animations. Even the highly designed title templates are editable right in the video preview window. If you want even more customization, the Advanced Text Edit dialog lets you change the animation, font, and color fill for your text.

One frill missing is PowerDirector's and Premiere Elements' ability to use video fill in your text characters, but you can use a photo, which is pretty cool. In addition to text, you can choose from a good selection of objects and shapes to overlay onto your movie. A good many of the title styles require an extra effects subscription. You can get everything for an additional $20.99 per month, but I wish the standard annual subscription included them. That said, there's a generous selection of title styles included with the standard account.

Wondershare has greatly enhanced the program's audio capabilities, with new AI Music Generator and AI noise reduction tools, and a music stretching feature to fit your video. Filmora's Music section includes hundreds of background tracks, which you can augment by adding your own music files or by downloading more from the Filmstock-only library. Be aware that you can't use some of these tracks for commercial purposes.
