Free video software for easy lossless editing of AVI and WMV video files.
Machete Lite is a basic video editing tool which offers a couple of useful tools. It can cut off extra content from the video file without having to transcode or re-encode the file.
Basically, you open a video with the program and play it as it were a video player. Frame-to-frame, you can find footage, select from beginning to end and remove the section of the video you'd like to remove. You can also cut a section of the video and save it as a separate file.
In addition to the video trimmer, Machete Lite also functions as a tag editor so that users may modify the metadata contained within the video file.
Since this is a lite version of a more feature-rich application, it's likely you would have to purchase the full version if you were interested in any of the advanced features (like support for more formats).

Compatibility and License
Machete Lite is a restricted version of commercial software, often called freemium which requires you to pay a license fee to unlock additional features which are not accessible with the free version. Download and installation of this software is free, however other similar programs are available from audio and video editors which may have what you need. 5.1 build 44 is the latest version last time we checked.
What version of Windows can Machete Lite run on?
Machete Lite can be used on a computer running Windows 11 or Windows 10. Previous versions of the OS shouldn't be a problem with Windows 8 and Windows 7 having been tested. It comes in both 32-bit and 64-bit downloads.
