==History==

The original XML Notepad was written in 1998 by Murray Low in C++, but was eventually removed from [[Microsoft Developer Network]] (MSDN) due to its lack of support for modern XML standards and no maintenance. However, because of high demand, a replacement was written in C# by Chris Lovett using the System.Xml library of the [[.NET Framework 2.0]].<ref name="design">{{cite web|url=http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa905339.aspx|title=XML Notepad 2007 Design|last=Lovett|first=Chris|work=[[MSDN]]|publisher=[[Microsoft]]|accessdateaccess-date=16 July 2010|date=August 2006}}</ref>

XML Notepad 2007 was released eight months after the release of XML Notepad 2006. The new version featured several bug fixes, [[Windows Vista]] compatibility and updated [[Windows Aero|Aero-style]] [[computer icon]]s.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://news.softpedia.com/news/Microsoft-Unveils-XML-Notepad-2007-40839.shtml|title=Microsoft Unveils XML Notepad 2007 |work=[[Softpedia]]|publisher=SoftNews|last=Oiaga|first=Marius|date=23 November 2006|accessdateaccess-date=16 July 2010}}</ref>

XML Notepad 2.6 was released in 2014 containing various bug fixes reported by community on codeplex. It was also updated to use [[.NET Framework 4.0]].
