Yes recently, though it doesn't seem well publicised.

It is written up in the "Live Connect APIs" section of MSDN

Update Apr 2015: Its available, these days the info is avialable at One Drive Auth

Short answer - no. Windows Hotmail (by which I suppose you now mean Outlook) / Live (again by which I suppose you mean Microsoft Accounts) both support OAUTH 2. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/live/hh243647.aspx

  • OpenID Connect is supported by Microsoft Accounts (aka Windows Live ID, aka Microsoft Passport etc.) as of Feb 2016, please read: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2016/02/23/for-developers-the-first-use-cases-of-the-converged-microsoft-account-and-azure-active-directory-programming-model-are-now-ga/ – saille May 03 '17 at 21:36
  • Would you mind revisiting this answer? Both the other answer and the comment seem to indicate that as of late OpenID is available for use, thus making this accepted answer now no longer applicable. – Adriaan Sep 01 '17 at 10:07
