No problems installing and running the software, and wow, did it remind me of Corel video editors when I saw the UI.  Corel now owns Roxio, by the way.

It looks easy, but it can't find video files that don't have Roxio extensions.  I already have loads of photos and videos on my computer, and it did not recognize any of my video files.  I found a way to pull them in so I could try editing them.  It works, but it isn't great.  It's functional, but it simply doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles.  Professionals will hate it.  Even hobbyists will squirm, if they have used other video editors.  It creates .dmess files (that's not true, but the file extension is similar), and I wonder if it's compatible with commonplace viewers?  Honestly, I haven't tried.  I'm not optimistic.

It does recognize commonplace photo extensions, and the photo editor is very easy to use.  But it's not much better than the Windows photo editor you probably already have installed.

It does run on Windows 8, so it is an option if you're running Windows 8 and you're seeking budget software.  But I don't recommend it.
