When editing a video QuickTime MOV file, sometimes you may need toremove audio tracks bundled with it so that you can add a different audio track. Although a range of video editing programs can help you achieve this, I think Wondershare Filmora is worth trying. This program is cross-platform so that it can help you remove audio completely from the original MOV files with ease in both Windows and Mac.
