Hello markm96160, my name is Rick and I work with the Windows Outreach Team,
and I have read about your trouble with Windows Movie Maker. When your
computer froze it created two .tmp files, that it left as temporary files on
your hard drive. It is possible that they are recoverable but it is not
likely. In most cases those files will have been “corrupted” and may not be
recovered. You can try moving those files to a new folder and try importing
them into WMM again. If that doesn’t work, you may have to re-capture those
files.
I am including a link to some helpful WMM resources where you might be able
to find out more.
