Here are Microsoft's warnings on what Live Mesh users should expect if they download Windows Essentials 2012: We think you will find SkyDrive to be increasingly useful over time.РІР‚Сњ When I asked Microsoft officials in the past if the plan was to replace completely Live Mesh with SkyDrive, a spokesperson would say only: РІР‚СљAs we discussed recently, we are excited to bring the DNA of SkyDrive and Mesh together to provide our customers with seamless access to their content. And with Mesh, users have more granular control over how much of their content they sync, something they don't have with SkyDrive. With Live Mesh, users can sync between PCs without going to the cloud to do so. And some of these other features are ones that many Live Mesh users are unwilling to do without. But as a number of those using Live Mesh have noted, while SkyDrive includes a number of the same features as Live Mesh, it omits others. Microsoft has been hinting that it was going to send Live Mesh to the graveyard for a while now.

(Microsoft acknowledges this when users click on a link in the original post that says it leads to more information on what's new in Movie Maker and Photo Gallery.)

Microsoft is replacing Live Mesh with SkyDrive, its cloud storage service, on the PCs of those who install Windows Essentials 2012. There is one change though that some users are discovering by unhappy surprise. (If you've downloaded it and found anything worth noting in other components of the new bundle, please chime in below in the comments.)

Mail, Messenger and Writer are all still in there but don't seem to have been updated much, if at all, based on comments from those comparing the new Windows Essentials 2012 bits to the Windows Live Essentials 2011 ones. The 2012 version of the Windows Essentials bundle includes updated versions of Movie Maker and Photo Gallery. Microsoft released the 2011 version of its Windows Live Essentials bundle in mid-2011. Microsoft has used the 'Windows Live Essentials' name to refer to the bundle of services that has included Windows Live Mail, Messenger, Movie Maker, Photo Gallery, Family Safety (parental controls), Writer (its blogging tool) and Mesh (its PC sync service).

Now known as 'Windows Essentials' rather than 'Windows Live Essentials,' it adds some new capabilities, but also removes Live Mesh from the PCs of those who install it. Microsoft released on August 7 a new bundle of free services meant to complement Windows 7 and Windows 8.
