I've been looking for a free video editor that can do video sharpening, color correction and more but I haven't had much luck I was wondering if any one else knew about one. (Also it has to be windows 10 compatible). Thanks :-)

DaVinci Reslove is a good option.

No

Then how is it free? How are they monetizing the program?

The Free version has certain limits, like slower or reduced capabilities of noise reduction or usage of multi core CPUs and multi-GPU setups.  They make money off their hardware, software isn't their main game.

They are using the software to sell their hardware. Potential customers are already familiar with their software...

Also the free version is missing features like denoising.

Some of the stuff you don't get in the free version of Resolve itself you can get in some free OpenOFX I found. Like Lens Distortion, Sharpen,  Film grain/add noise if you need that. Some features isn't tho.

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. 
It matters that you don't just give up.”
