SUMMARY
=======

If you have recorded and imported sounds in 3D Movie Maker, and if the sounds
are not used in the current movie, 3D Movie Maker displays the following
warning:

  You recorded or imported sounds that you didn't use in your movie. Do you
  want to: Get rid of them before closing the movie? Leave the unused sounds in
  the file?

If you opt to "Get rid of them before closing the movie," all of the recorded and
imported sounds that you didn't use in the movie are removed from the 3D Movie
Maker file. If you want to use them again, you'll need to either record the
sounds again or import them in to 3D Movie Maker again.

If you choose "Leave the unused sounds in the file," all of the sounds remain in
the 3D Movie Maker (.3mm) file and are available for you to use the next time
you edit the movie.

MORE INFORMATION
================

To make sure that you do not unintentionally lose the sounds that you created
using 3D Movie Maker, record the sounds using Windows Sound Recorder. These
files are saved as .wav files.

Sound files are compressed when you import them into 3D Movie Maker. They are
stored in a proprietary format that takes up less hard drive space than standard
.wav files.
