Windows Live Writer 2011 is available now, but not for Win-XP users

On September 30, 2010, Microsoft published the latest version of Windows Live Writer. Named Windows Live Writer 2011, is part of Windows Live Essentials which also includes Windows Live Messenger, Photo Gallery, Movie Maker, Mail, Family Safety, Windows Live Mesh, Bing Bar, Messenger Companion, Microsoft Silverlight and also the Outlook Connector Pack. You actually don’t have to install the complete package of the Windows Live Essentials. You can install Live Writer as the stand alone application, apart from another packages of Windows Live Essentials.

But, there is a bad news for a Live Writer user. If you still use Windows XP as your operating system, you won’t be able to try this latest version of Live Writer 2011. It only support Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Vista SP2.

The latest version of Live Writer 2011 (version 15.4.3502.0922) is available at Microsoft Download Center.  If you’re still running Windows XP, you may download the latest compatible version of Live Writer 2009 (version 14.0.8050.1202) from FileHippo.com.
