Isn't this short-lived bloatware that partially depended on online services? Everything Microsoft makes is pushed with big fanfare and soon discontinued. The setup wouldn't run on Server 2003 SP2, so I don't know if it works. I found bunch of Languages, and would be annoyed by their existence if this was something I wanted.

@j7n You can make the setup run on Server 2003 by following this guide: https://msfn.org/board/topic/129276-how-to-install-windows-live-2009-on-windows-server-2003/

Yes, but I don't want it. I just wanted to test that it runs before I send him the file.

What components in Essentials are useful today?
