Microsoft Windows Essentials 2012 has been among us for quite some time now. But as the company has been warning for some time , the suite of apps was slated to be gone by January 10, 2017.
January 10 has passed and we now know the link to download the installation file is no longer available at the Windows Essentials download page. But in case you have it already installed on your machine, Microsoft has stated that nothing will change and the suite of apps will still work as it has until now. Unfortunately, the company warns that the lack of support means an increased security risk over time.
