Live Writer Expiration issue (resolution)

I got this error today telling me that i needed a new version. I think one of the other MyITforum guys blogged about this a few days ago. So I went looking for a new version. Turns out it is just a bug.

 

Here is what I found on the Live Writer blog

Technical Preview Triggers False Expiration

For those of you who downloaded the Technical Preview and have used Writer in the last couple of days, you may have seen a notification to upgrade to the new version only to be directed to http://get.live.com/writer to find that there is nothing new to install.

On Monday (September 1, 2008) the Technical Preview of Writer started erroneously triggering expiration for October 1, 2008.  We have fixed the issue that was causing the false expiration.  While the Technical Preview of Writer will not expire on October 1, you may still see this notification again. 

expire

When you see this notification, click the “Ask Me Later” button and you will be able to continue using Writer without any change.

We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
