Yes and it's fun getting Windows Live Mail 2012 to keep working at the best of times.
Every year or so, have to add these registry entries to revive it
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail]
"RecreateFolderIndex"=dword:00000001
"RecreateStreamIndex"=dword:00000001
"RecreateUIDLIndex"=dword:00000001
They'd prefer Outlook Express.
For everyone's sake it might be best to refuse to support the application because of the security risks with such an outdated program.
