You can do one of two things..
Download the K-Lite Codec Pack which basically has all the codecs you will ever need….

or on the Tools Menu click Options then check the Download Codecs Automatically Box…
I dont know why you are trying to view these files in Windows Movie Maker though, if you just want to watch them then either use Windows Media Player or a program called VLC Media Player…

You wont need to download any codecs and it will allow you to watch any movie file you want with no trouble at all. Best of luck and if you need any more help then message me!!
