Windows Live Mail in Windows 10

I recently installed Windows Essentials 2012 on my Windows 10 machine. When I went to start using Windows Live Mail, the application opened and launched successfully but I couldn't log into my Gmail account which I was using as my Microsoft account. At first I thought this was because Windows Live is no longer in service and Microsoft accounts don't work with Windows Live applications, but when I signed into Windows Movie Maker with my Microsoft account it worked just fine. Is there anything I can do to get Windows Live Mail to work on Windows 10?
