Windows Live Essentials 2012 is only for Windows 7 and Windows 8. It is more confusing and there is even more of the Ribbon than there was in WLE 2011 version.Īnd now when you go to the Microsoft website in Windows 7 or Windows 8,you get redirected to the WLE 2012 download page. And from the screenshots,it looks even worse than WLE 2011 version. Windows Live Messenger 8.5 and MSN Messenger 7.5.īut now Microsoft have put out WLE 2012 version. And some people are using earlier versions of Windows Live Messenger. And have successfully stayed on WLE 2009 version.

Which is much hated by many Windows users.Īnd as a result most Windows 7,Windows Vista and Windows 8 users,including me,have refused to upgrade to WLE 2011 version. This comes at a time when only a few weeks ago Microsoft issued a mandatory update in July.To all Windows Vista,Windows 7 and Windows 8 users.Who are still on Windows Live Essentials 2009 version to upgrade to WLE 2011 version. I have just read on the Microsoft website that Windows Live Essentials 2012 has just been released by Microsoft.
