Note: Messenger was retired in April 2013, and is no longer available on most operating systems. Your Messenger contacts will come with you when you update to Skype.
Overview
Windows Essentials is a suite of freeware applications by Microsoft that aims to offer integrated and bundled e-mail, photo-sharing, blog publishing, and security services. Essentials programs are designed to integrate well with each other, with Microsoft Windows, and with other Microsoft web-based services such as OneDrive (Aka SkyDrive) and Outlook.com, so that they operate as a "seamless whole".
Windows Live Mesh and OneDrive:
If you have Windows Live Mesh installed, it will automatically be removed if you install the new Movie Maker or Photo Gallery (available as part of Windows Essentials 2012).
Microsoft OneDrive will be installed in place of Windows Live Mesh. To sync folders from the cloud to all of your PCs, you will need to install OneDrive on all of your PCs or Macs.
