When you first run the video editor, a registration dialog pops up, and then you get to the redesigned Start launcher for the whole Nero suite, even if you only want to install Video.

The installer also installed three helper apps: Nero Start, AI Photo Tagger, and Nero KnowHow. I installed Nero Video on a PC running 64-bit Windows 10 Pro with a 3.4GHz Core i7 6700 CPU, 16GB RAM, and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card. It also installs a system tray WiFi & Transfer utility for moving content from your smartphone. First you download a small stub program that downloads and installs the actual program, which takes up a bit over 1GB on your disk. The software requires Windows 11, 10, 8, or 7 (32-bit and 64-bit are both supported). To test the Nero waters, you can download a free 15-day trial version for the price of an email address-with no credit card information required. By comparison, CyberLink PowerDirector and Adobe Premiere Elements both list for $99.99, and Pinnacle Studio costs $129.99. You can get it in the Microsoft Store, currently for $49.99.

Nero Video 2022 lists for $55.99, about half the cost of Pinnacle Studio Ultimate, and it's almost always discounted by at least $10. Notable recent inclusions before those were support for vertical mobile-style video, new movie themes, sounds, disc menus, and the KnowHow help panel.
