How to Join Videos on Windows 11 or 10
Introduction
If you have several video files and want to integrate them into one video for the sake of convenient playing, online posting and sharing. Free Video Cutter Joiner provides a three-step desktop workflow for combining clips on Windows 11 or Windows 10. Arrange files in the intended order, choose one output profile, and export a single video for easier playback or sharing.
Step 1. Input Video Files
After launching Free Video Cutter Joiner, click "Add" -
"Add File" and in the activated explorer window, choose the video files you want to join together and click
"Open", then the videos will be listed in the program window. You are also allowed to use
"Add Folder" or "Add Folder Tree" to import video files conveniently.
Step 2. Specify Merging Settings
Then, you need to activate the video merging engine by checking the option of "Merge videos to one video". In "profiles" menu, choose one of the ready-made presets for your devices. Moreover, you can also choose the video/audio codecs and edit the profiles. Then, click "Browse" to choose an output folder for the joined video file.
Step 3. Start Video Joining
Now, click "Encode" to start video joining and a new window will pop up, just input a name for the merged video file, then click "OK". A few seconds later, you can find the joined video file directly by clicking "Open".
Tips for a clean merged video
Arrange clips before starting the export and preview the beginning and end of each file. When source clips use different resolutions, frame rates, or orientations, select one consistent output profile. This avoids a final file that changes size or plays unpredictably between clips.
The clips appear in the wrong order
Return to the file list and arrange the items in playback order before selecting Encode. Numbering source filenames can make a long sequence easier to verify.
The joined video has no sound or audio is out of sync
Play each source file first, then try a widely supported output profile. Avoid changing the frame rate unless needed and make sure the source download is complete.
Frequently asked questions
Can I join videos with different formats?
Yes. Choose one output format for the merged file. All source clips will be processed into that common output profile.
Does joining videos overwrite the originals?
No. The program creates a new output file. Keep the source clips until you have watched and verified the result.

Yes. The current download supports Windows 11 and Windows 10.
