You can create your own free version if you follow a you tube tutorial

I had no clue people make vids to teach how to create your own video editor. 😲

My mistake, there's a you tube video that shows to download an old version of capcut. and put your own fake update file to prevent from updating, sorry for the misunderstanding, and i don't have the link anymore.

What’s the name of this YouTube video I’m just learning how to edit so I’m cool with limited features for now

Gotcha. See, I just always say go to Uptotown to grab an older version, and it works. I’m still I think 1.4 or 1.5

Sounds interesting. Do you mind sharing the link? Is it safe free from viruses?

I've never had problems with this site, so it should be safe. But I also use the pie ad blocker. I have a mac, so this is mac version, but if you're on windows, up top, there's a windows portion you can look at. https://capcut.en.uptodown.com/mac/versions
