When I save my video as an AVI it fails to complete the save. This seems to be a consistent problem. Then when I open the directory with Windows Explorer where I saved the avi file I get an error. At this rate I won't be able to delete the partial file since Windows Explorer closes with an error and I can't get to the file to delete it. Anyone had that problem? I have the full version 10 and Windows XP.
Thanks

Can you tell us exactly which properties you are using for the AVI file you are trying to save? WHere did it come from and what editing has been done to it?
As you may be aware, *.avi is merely a carrier format, and can be used by a variety of other codecs. It can range from uncompressed avi which is huge and runs to 65GB per hour of video, through DV/AVI (13 GB per hour), through to highly compressed mpeg-4 formats such as DivX and XVid which, though mpeg-4, still use the extension .avi. It could thus be that you are, for instance, trying to save your file in an avi format for which you don't have the correct codec or the codec is corrupt.

partial help
I have an unrelated problem but symptom of windows crashing on select of .avi is similar ....
found if you re-open VS and go to 'add video to project', then navigate and highlight problem avi, then hit delete key and confirm delete file .... this will get rid of the problematic files without needing windows explorer functionality
Good luck with the major problem though
