MP4 and "Most" variants (Microsoft MP4 codec)

[Oneshot]

I posted a question in an earlier post regarding the ability to output MP4
with Windows Movie Maker.

If there is anyone out there from Microsoft, could you answer my questions?

1) It would seem that at one time Movie Maker supported MP4.

2) Can I still download the above codecs and use them to encode to MP4 in
Windows Movie maker & in Windows Encoder?

3) If the answer to question #2 is NO. How far do I have to go back,
"Microsoft software wise" to be able to use these codecs?

Thank you! (I hope)
