Blender replacement

[LifeCaptured]

I've tried using Blender as my NLE software, mostly because Lightworks and Wine are too expensive. Blender looks promising, but it keeps crashing on me. What is an affordable alternative that allows for the syncing and editing of audio and video footage?

Which version are you using? There are reports of Blender 2.9 constantly crashing. Does the crash happen on startup or in the course of your work? A friend even mentioned that after downgrading to version 2.8.5, everything started working well.

Hey, PerfectClick, thanks for chiming in. You were right about needing to run an update. That's all it took to get things working again. Thanks!
