Clipchamp is a default application in the Microsoft Windows 11 system. Microsoft acquired this web-based video editor in 2021 and then integrated it into the preview version of Windows 11 in early 2022. Windows 11 users can right-click in the file manager and find the Edit in Clipchamp option in the menu.
