The term Windows Live Essentials most likely sounds familiar to you, you've probably read something about it in the past. It sounds familiar or not, avoid worrying, because we teach you everything about them. For what they are, what they are for and how they can be had on the computer, for users with Windows 10.
Windows Live Essentials also known in various cases as Windows Essentials. So if you hear or read about either of these two terms, they generally mean the same thing. Unless it is specified that there are differences between the two, which is not usually the case.
What are Windows Live Essentials and what are they for?
Windows Live Essentials is or was a collection of free applications. They were all created by Microsoft and they were offered in a single package, thus facilitating their installation. In 2005 it was officially launched on the market, even though in later years new versions were launched, where some of the applications included in said package were modified.
The last of these packages or versions of Windows Live Essentials was released in 2012. It was its end, even when the arrival of Windows 8 to the market also changed something, since some of these applications were integrated into the operating system. Other applications in this collection had worse luck, or were left out or some of them stopped updating directly and disappeared.
Microsoft directly abandoned this project after this latest version. Actually, there are no Windows Live Essentials servers currently available. Even though in various repositories we can still download this package. So that users can have the 2012 version installed on their computer. This is something that some users are very interested in.
Among the applications that we find in this latest version are OneDrive, Photo Gallery, Mail, Writer, Messenger and others. El problema es que algunos de ellos ya no funcionan bien, por lo que inclusive si están instalados es viable que no funcionen como antes. Este es un riesgo que hay que prestar atención be cual sea el caso, puesto que es probable que desees utilizar una determinada aplicación, pero no es viable hacerlo como en el pasado.
How to download them to your computer

Therefore, those users who wish to have these applications on their PC still have the opportunity to install them on it. Even though as we have talked about, there are no guarantees that they will all work as desired on the PC.
