I hate the mail program on my new laptop, Windows 8. How can I change the email program to Windows Live Mail as I use with Windows 7?

Hi B Looney,
Thank you for your reply.
Windows Live Mail.

Hope this helps.
Nothing I have found answers my question. Compare the Windows Live mail side by side with Window Live Essentials App that came with my Windows 8 Laptop. The Windows Live program is easier to read, the editing features are prominent and easy to find, the whole program is better. I want that program to replace Windows Essentials on the laptop but I haven't found a way to do that and none of the correspondence is helpful. It all sends me to the same page, with the same FAQ.
