I think that an older version of Premier Pro,  (CS2 era), from Adobe is available the same way that Photoshop CS2 is available, "free" for users who've paid the licensee fee, with a public key, because they managed to delete the registration server,  and didn't want to bother recreating the registration server for a product so few people were still using.

The only fly in Adobe's ointment is that they haven't changed the EULA which reads in part, that if you download the software from their server, and obtain a key from them, your copy is legal, the EULA doesn't mention anything about payment IIRC.

All it takes is to have a free Adobe account, which gives access to the download and the key.  That might be worth doing if all you want is to do a couple of simple edits.

Then it must have been a MP4 that I edited about 5 years ago.

Trouble is, I have a sneaking suspicion I downloaded editing software that was good for a month trail run (before it expired) to edit frame by frame a videotape of Bill McKibben (who once spoke at our church).

Because I definitely remember doing that when I cut off the introduction and and the Q&A at the end. I remember not only editing the picture part frame by frame, but the audio part too with a pretty decent basic editor. Not that I did any fancy editing, just cutting things off having them sync well enough. Maybe I can find it again.

I haven't really opened Windows Movie Maker for years, I know I used it for the titles, but maybe not much more than that. We shall see.

I guess I should add I used Video Premier Elements 11 to edit a MP3
about 5 years ago. Another speaker. But it was just adding a title
screen, and "the end," and cutting off the Q&A at the end.
Mp3 is an audio export format - it cannot contain video.

Mp4 is a video compression container (for video and audio export). Variations are also also used by many camera manufacturers as a way of compressing video ready to be 'uncompressed' into it's full glory for editing. You shouldn't be editing Mp4 files - they need to be unwrapped into a format suitable for the editing software first.
