Video clips (as all media) must be Imported into WMM (Windows Movie Maker). Video files must contain the one of the following file name extensions:

.asf, .avi, dvr-ms, .m1v, .mp2, .mp2v, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .mpv2, .wm, and .wmv

If the video file is formatted in one of those listed above, simply click on Import Media (top-left side of WMM program). Locate the video file you want to import, then click import.
If you have successfully imported the video, it will appear in the Imported Media pane.

You can then, drag the video into the Time-line or Storyboard of the program for editing.

All media (including video) has to be Imported into Windows Movie Maker. Click on the Import Media button on the top menu bar. Locate the video you want to include in the project and click Import.

The video should appear in the Imported Media viewing pane (and collection folder). Then drag the video into the Time-line or Storyboard view of the program.
