DaVinci Resolve for Windows brings together everything a modern post-production workflow needs — non-linear editing, Hollywood-grade color grading, Fusion visual effects, and Fairlight audio mixing — inside one application. Whether you are cutting a YouTube video, polishing a short film, or finishing a commercial spot, the DaVinci Resolve download gives you the same toolset trusted by feature-film and streaming productions. As a complete DaVinci video editor, it scales from beginner-friendly edits on a laptop to multi-hour projects running on a high-end workstation.

• Multi-page editing workflow — Use the Cut page for fast turnarounds and the Edit page for traditional multi-track timelines, with dynamic trimming, source overwrite, and sync bin tools designed for real production speed.
• Hollywood-grade color grading — Work with primary and secondary corrections, HDR grading, node-based pipelines, and the color science behind countless theatrical releases, all directly on the Color page.
• Fusion visual effects and motion graphics — Composite titles, animated graphics, green-screen keys, tracking, and full 3D scenes through a node-based VFX environment built into the same project.
• Fairlight audio post-production — Mix multi-track sessions, record ADR, design sound effects, and monitor in stereo or surround without ever leaving DaVinci Resolve.
• Free and Studio editions — DaVinci Resolve free covers the majority of editing, color, VFX, and audio needs at no cost, while DaVinci Resolve Studio adds advanced noise reduction, extra Resolve FX, neural-engine features, and higher resolution delivery.

Is DaVinci Resolve free? Yes. The standard edition is offered as a fully featured DaVinci Resolve free download — no watermarks, no trial period, and no project caps — and you can use it for both personal and commercial work. The DaVinci Resolve Studio download is the optional paid upgrade for users who need advanced noise reduction, additional Resolve FX, neural-engine tools, stereoscopic 3D, and unlimited delivery resolutions.

Which versions of Windows are supported? DaVinci Resolve runs on 64-bit editions of Windows 10 and Windows 11. A discrete graphics card with up-to-date drivers is strongly recommended for smooth playback, real-time effects, and color work.

Is my data secure? Yes. Your projects, media, caches, and renders stay on your own machine unless you intentionally export them or opt into Blackmagic Cloud collaboration. You remain in full control of where your files live and who you share them with.
