System requirements can be found here.
Note - as in previous releases of Windows Live Essentials, you still have the option of choosing what parts of the Essentials package you would like to use.
Live Mesh users should note that installing the full installation will remove Live Mesh. If you want to retain the program, then continue using WLE2011. -- A)bort, R)etry, I)nfluence with large hammer. |

 | reply to MSeng Thanks, MSeng 
Is Security Essentials included in Essentials 2012? The only thing I can find is something called "Family Safety", which I really don't need, but I need Security Essentials.
The only components I use from Essentials are Windows Live Mail and Security Essentials. Can this version be installed without uninstalling the previous version?
Many thanks ! |

Yes, you can do a custom install and only update the Mail client. You do not have to uninstall the older version first. I would suggest you backup your contacts and mail before you start though. -- A)bort, R)etry, I)nfluence with large hammer. |
