RSS Feeds

[Larry Adler]

I've been following new downloads from https://www.techspot.com/downloads with an RSS reader forever. Suddenly a few days ago the only articles showing up are general subjects like "Amazon Prime membership now includes unlimited cloud storage for photos" instead of the normal new program downloads. What's changed?

Hi Larry, not sure why you're seeing that since the feed has not changed.

Our downloads RSS feed:
https://www.techspot.com/downloads.xml

And here are all our feeds:
https://www.techspot.com/tsxml.html

Could be Larry is using the old feedburner links like I was a few days ago.

I thought about that, too, but those were fixed already and shouldn't be getting news in the downloads feed anyway.

@Julio Franco

For some reason the backend.xml is the only feed that is setting up in Windows Live Mail. The reviews.xml, downloads.xml, and drivers.xml is giving me an invalid RSS feed error.

Fresh install on an 850 EVO is forcing me to setup feeds again. I'm almost certain I'm using an updated version of Windows Live Mail. It's possible MS did something that broke the feeds.

I don't use Live Mail but a standard RSS reader is opening them fine, I'll double-check later tonight:

I'm using Windows Live Mail Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3528.0331)

Here is the error I'm getting, sad really as it doesn't give details.
