After a long time back I tried to use windows live writer as my blogging tool. I used it early days and suddenly I missed it. So after I install windows live writer 2012 (latest version) I tried connect with my blog. My blog engine is a blogger. I entered correct URL, username and password. I checked that with the browser as well to verify details are correct or not. I tried 2 or 3 times but no luck. I search in the Google and I couldn’t find the good solution for this matter. because of that I thought to write about this then this might be helpful to someone else. The below image shows the error message.
After all the attempts, I found the solution. In my Google account, I activated the 2-way verification system to my Google account for unknown applications and devices. When I'm logging through unknown device’s browser I get the security code and I enter it can use the particular Google service. But with live writer there is no any method to use it that way. Because of that I need to go to below link and add live writer. Then I get generated password by Google. I have to use it for the sign in with live writer and blogger.
https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords
After complete above steps, I logged in successfully with my live writer and the blogger. So here after all blog post will come through the live writer.
Happy blogging. Ohhh yeahh
