Windows live writer wont connect to blogger

Anonymous

I have been using the windows live writer for years and today it wont let me post into my blogger blog.

The first error was stating that my user name and password was incorrect so I changed it. It still didn't work and still stating the same issue. I clean/repaired up the windows essentials like other forms said. Now the error message I get is blogger return the following error: Notfound: not found. I uninstalled and reinstalled and it keeps saying the same issue.

Thanks.

please make sure that you use the following steps

Verify you are using http or https for you website.
Add ' @gmail.com ' at the end of your user name.
If your account has 2-step verification enabled then see the following guide to use app specific password rather than your original password.

Hi All,

Thank you for bringing the issue to our notice. Please stay tuned as I have forwarded the concern and will be updating the thread as soon as possible.

Any resolution yet? This has created a big loss of communication for me.

Please please! If I don't hear something definitive by the end of this weekend, I personally am not going to be using Blogger to host my blog any more.
