In the previous post, we introduce several best online tools to rotate videos quickly and freely. However, these online video rotators also have their own drawbacks. For example, some tools do not support preview function for users to clearly see every change they made. Others may not delete your uploaded videos after you finish rotating, so your privacy may be leaked on the Internet. For that reasons, we here show you 5 desktop free video rotators that can be used to rotate a video easily and safely.
