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

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

    I would like a yes or no also.  The last time I was looking to upgrade my laptop I seriously consider an Apple but what kept me from it was that I wouldn't be able to use Windows Live Writer without paying extra to run Windows.  I think the next time I won't have to worry about it.   Maybe Apple is the way to go.

    Alguma posição oficial? O Google se exime de culpa, a Microsoft não se pronuncia. É mais fácil trocar tudo? Mudar para o Wordpress e trocar o programa para um que funcione?

    Poxa, porque algo simples, não pode ser resolvido? Qual a dificuldade?
