Last Updated: March 19, 2026
Website Disclaimer
hitfilmexpress.org is a fan-created informational website built to help users learn about HitFilm Express, a video editing and visual effects application originally developed by FXhome Ltd. This website exists purely to provide helpful information, download guidance, and educational content about the software.
We do not represent ourselves as the official source for HitFilm Express. All product names, brand names, logos, and trademarks referenced on this website are the property of their respective owners. Any use of these names is strictly for identification and informational purposes and does not imply endorsement or sponsorship of any kind.
Since FXhome shut down its website in January 2025 following the Artlist acquisition, there is no longer an official online presence for HitFilm Express. This site aims to fill that gap by preserving useful information about the software for people who still rely on it.
No Affiliation or Association
hitfilmexpress.org is independently operated. We are not the official website for HitFilm Express, FXhome, or Artlist.
- We do not represent, speak for, or act on behalf of FXhome Ltd. or Artlist
- We have no partnership, sponsorship, or business relationship with any software company featured here
- Information on this site is gathered from publicly available sources including archived documentation, community forums, and user guides

- Community-maintained mirrors
- Other legitimate distribution channels
Because FXhome’s official servers are no longer operational, original download links no longer work. The third-party sources we reference existed before the shutdown and maintained their own copies of the installer files.
We make no modifications, alterations, or repackaging of any software files. We cannot guarantee the continued availability or integrity of files hosted on external platforms. Always verify any downloaded file using antivirus software before installation.
