i just noticed that when I click on Settings, TV, Guide, Guide Terms of Service, I get a response of No Internet Connection. I have never noticed this issue before.
Is that issue also connected to the EPG failure to connect to server?
I am absolutely positive that I do not have an Internet connectivity problem using any other application on the computer.
I literally just noticed the same thing minutes ago. Either the guide terms of service does some internet call which now does not work due to the down server, or MS has stealthy applied some update to turn the TOS info off as to say it is finished.
Also if you go help page which useless @microsofthelps tweeted out,
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/hel ... ng-started ,
you will see it was last updated 1/23/2019, very recent considering this is a "dead" product. Also really no true mention of the guide in detail (perhaps that's what was edited out). I clicked on the "not useful" link on that page and submitted a comment - perhaps everyone can do the same and see if that gets any response (doubt it).
If all this is true then guess goes to show how much MS cares about people who paid for WMC and how they handle things. Or, if this is just another IT issue them maybe it will miraculously start working again some day. EOL for Win 7 is not an excuse (and technically not Jan 2020 yet), as providing the guide is trivial to MS and probably the same resources that do the xbox guide.
