Free Edit Software - Loophole?

Quick question for you guys on the free editing software GoPro provides.

I know the editing software only works when your GoPro is plugged into your computer. However, could you take the micro SD card out of your GoPro, transfer your main camera footage to the micro SD, and put it back into the GoPro? Would the software still work?

I'm sure they prevent this somehow but was wondering if anyone here has tried it? Thanks!
 
What would the purpose be to do that? There is lots of free editing software out there

To have all your action shot footage and main camera footage in the same spot. The only reason I ask that is because I am familiar with the free GoPro software because this is all I've done in the past. I've never tried to combine main camera footage & action camera footage so I am new to the whole thing.
 
I think there's a free version of power director where you can upload all the footage to and then edit from there. Much easier. I learned and by no means am I a great editor by watching you tube videos on your phone or a second computer while doing the actual editing on your main computer. There are some great tutorials on you tube. Just look up what your tryna do. Good luck!
