Last year, Microsoft stopped making new versions of Microsoft Money, their personal money management software package—and now they’ve made it available for everybody for free… well, sorta. The new “Sunset” versions were created so that existing customers could continue to install MS Money without requiring activation, but that also means anybody can download and install it. From their page: The Microsoft Money Plus Sunset versions are replacements for expired versions of Microsoft Money Essentials, Deluxe, Premium, and Home and Business. They allow existing customers to use MoneyPlus to continue accessing their data. Changes to the new versions include file conversions from older versions of Money, no required activation, no online services and no assisted support. Microsoft Money Plus Sunset is available now. Download and install Microsoft Money on Windows 10. Managing finances isn’t always the simplest task. In the past many users relied on tools such as Microsoft Money in order to help them manage their finances. Microsoft Money was a popular tool in the past, therefore today we’re going to show you how to install it on Windows 10. What is Microsoft Money? Microsoft Money has a long history, but unfortunately this tool isn’t actively developed anymore.

Since all online support isn’t available anymore, you can’t use any of the previously available online features such as bill payment, online quotes, statement downloads, data sync with MSN Money, etc. Keep in mind that there’s no online help and no Assisted Support, therefore if you have any issues you won’t get any support from Microsoft.

This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Principles that Matter: Sustaining Software Innovation 1 from the Client to the Web Marco Iansiti David Sarnoff Professor of Business Administration Director of Research Harvard Business School Boston, MA 02163 June 15, 2009 1 The early work for this paper was based on a project funded by Microsoft Corporation. The author has consulted for a variety of companies in the information technology sector. The author would like to acknowledge Greg Richards and Robert Bock from Keystone Strategy LLC for invaluable suggestions. 1. Overview The information technology industry forms an ecosystem that consists of thousands of companies producing a vast array of interconnected products and services for consumers and businesses. This ecosystem was valued at more than $3 Trillion in 2008.2 More so than in any other industry, unique opportunities for new technology products and services stem from the ability of IT businesses to build new offerings in combination with existing technologies. This creates an unusual degree of interdependence among information technology products and services and, as a result, unique opportunities exist to encourage competition and innovation. In the growing ecosystem of companies that provide software services delivered via the internet - or “cloud computing” - the opportunities and risks are compounded by a significant increase in interdependence between products and services.

  • Microsoft Corp.'S Intent to Acquire Intuit Inc. for $1.5 Billion Sent
    icrosoft Microsoft Corp.'s intent to Must Be acquire Intuit Inc. for $1.5 billion sent competitors run- ning for cover—and to lawyers, who composed a 49-page White Paper arguing for gov- ernment intervention against the merger. UPSIDE makes available an exclusive version of the White Paper, which has been circulat- S-H V ed only to U.S. Department of Justice officials and, presumably, to the undisclosed companies that financed it. In the paper, four • e - attorneys from the Palo Alto, Calif., law firm of Wilson, Sonsini, "3 Goodrich & Rosati, buttressed by arguments from two Stanford U University economists, set forth new theories about Microsoft's Oil domination of the digital revolution. Though the paper (edited . for length but not otherwise changed by UPSIDE) reads as though .V- lawyers and economists wrote it, it's important because it repre- 03: o sents one of the most complete accounts of Microsoft's strategy to CO " dominate the software industry. It also presents compelling rea- sons why the government should take action against Microsoft. 52 UP SIDE FEBRUARY 1995 ILLUSTRATION BY BRUCE MCGILLIVRAY pproximately three years ago, Microsoft entered the personal financial software market Awith its own product, Microsoft Money. With the proposed acquisition of Intuit, however, Microsoft is abandoning Money and reentering the market by way of acquiring Quicken. It also is entering the tax prepara- tion software market for the first time, with the acquisi- tion of TurboTax. The deal at bottom raises the follow- ing question: Is the substitution of Microsoft for Intuit as the market leader, and Novell (or any other company) for Microsoft as a competitor, likely to be anticompeti- tive and to tend to create a monopoly? Both the personal finance software and consumer tax preparation software markets are extremely concen- trated.

  • Microsoft Overview Market Share and Importance History and Strategy
    Microsoft Industry Area: Computers – software and services. Overview The key to understanding just about everything in the information economy is a technological axiom called Moore's law, named for Gordon Moore, one of the co-founders of Intel. Simply put, Moore's law states that measured aginst its price, the performance of semiconductor technology doubles every 18 months or so1. This should have resulted in a vibrant industry with competitors racing to stay one step ahead in adapting new technology and securing consumer loyalty. One thing the industry hadn't banked on was Microsoft. As its founder, Bill Gates, says: “well, you know, capitalism has these strange things, where some people have all these resources2.” Market share and importance To say Microsoft is a large corporation is to describe Ariel Sharon as a large man – a gross understatement. They are huge. Microsoft (and probably also Sharon) takes up 18.3 million square feet of office building space alone3. Microsoft is ranked 15th in the world's top 500 companies and its operating software has driven 93% of the world's desktop computers since 19914. At its peak, the company had a market value roughly equal to the gross domestic product of Spain5. Its Office software, encompassing a suite of e-mail, word-processing, spreadsheet and presentation tools, dominates 90% of the market and bring in $9 billion annually, a third of the company's revenue6. History and strategy Bill Gates was born in Seattle in 1955. His first exposure to computers was at school in the late 1960s with his friend Paul Allen.
