Does anyone know of a utility that it totally free and works 100% to convert a wmv file to a avi file?

I also just realized that the wmv is protected.. am I out of luck converting this to a avi file?

Thanks

I don't know what OS you are using, but this is a simple guide to follow if you are using XP or Vista. I hope this helps!

eric,
You've got me at a little bit of a stump in trying to find a free converter to convert a protected wmv file! I'm using google search to try to find something, and you may do the same. The problem is that they do not tell you if it will convert a protected file or not! Kinda sucks!! :(

After doing a little more searching I've pretty much come up with the conclusion that trying different programs could cause a headache and the possibility of a reinstall of your OS!

The biggest mistake of all users who are trying to convert WMV to AVI freeware is that they try the first program they see in the search. You should really be careful in each and every software you are downloading, as it can contain very dangerous software which can ruin your whole computer. You really should think of all your actions, and be sure not to open any viruses or Trojans on your computer.
Maybe another member could recommend something for you!
