Hi all,


I am running the 2012 version with windows7. Is it worth moving to 2013?

    Is there a 2013 version of Windows Live Mail, I didn't think there was?

    I thought 2012 was the last version, a belief that was reinforced when I downloaded the latest Windows Live Essentials from the Microsoft site only a few weeks ago and my WLM v2011 updated to v2012.

    I was using Windows Live Mail but there is an issue with it on Windows 7. There was a discussion on this forum about it.

    Up to you Mike. 2011 was still working fine on my Win 7 Ultimate workstation and I only updated to v2012 because I read that Microsoft would not be supporting 2011 anymore with security updates.


    Visually I can't see any difference between 2011 and 2012 ... functionally I'm finding that 2012 takes longer to load, perhaps because of added 'behind the scenes' security measures.
