    It's a great editing software
    It's a great editing software, gives you all that a youtuber needs but the thing CRASHES ALL THE TIME!! I have a steller PC and it crashes at least 5 times when editing. You have to literally save every 20 seconds! And it could crash while saving! And you loose everything! If they fix this problem I'll give them 4 stars
