Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / General Topics / June 2007Feeds not updating in IE7
About a week to two weeks ago, all my feeds in my IE7 stopped updating automatically. I don't know if this is connected to the installation of Windows Live Mail (ex desktop/client) which also has feeds managed in it. However I can manually update the feeds but I don't want to do that with all my feeds over and over. Is there a fix for this which doesn't mean me having to reinstall IE 7 on my windows XP home machine? MY IE7 version is 7.0.5730.11 - Jon Crossposted to microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop newsgroup. I wouldn't be surprised if Windows Live Mail "hijacked" your RSS feeds.

Hopefully these steps fix the issue with your feeds updating. Do this to check your IE7 rss update settings: In the feeds pane on the right in IE7, right click any feed and select "Properties..." Then take a look at whether "Use default schedule" or "Use custom schedule" is selected. From that same window you can also see how frequently IE7 is updating your feeds. If "Use default schedule" is grayed out, click the "Settings..." button next to it and make sure "Automatically check feeds for updates" is checked. Let me know if this solves your problems with IE7 updating your feeds. I'll investigate to see what could have caused this to happen. Thanks, Anthony > Crossposted to microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop newsgroup. > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >> >> - Jon I too used to have this problem, still do on occasions and could never work out how to fix it. I have my schedule set for every 30 minutes yet the only way to get the feeds to update is to manually right click on them and tell them to update. Clicking 'Update Feeds' in WLM doesn't update them either when this problem occurs.

Not sure what caused this to happen but after being told to look at Scheduled tasks... My RSS feeds seemed to stop running after WLM installed, however I am not sure if WLM did this, it could have been an issue I had with iTunes (and subsequent system restores to fix the issues). ==== Original post ==== I have actually managed to fix to issue after you pointed me to the ST window. Turned out that the Protected Storage Service was corrupted. I searched microsofts database and found article 246183 and deleted the S-1-5-18 folder while in safe mode from c:\documents and settings\all users\application data\microsoft\crypto\rsa\s-1-5-18 Rebooted and sure enough it worked. I have not only RSS back but all other tasks i forgot were not running when they should have.

Open Scheduled Tasks and under one of the menu options is the setting to show all. If after enabling it you don't see them, go into Internet Settings -> Content -> Feeds and make sure updating regularly is turned on. If it is on, turn it off and back on. Watch the scheduled tasks window for it to appear. My computer is normally switched off over-night. The task for the feeds update goes under what name in task manager? Perhaps the task isn't running.

I'm one who sometimes runs for a week or more without rebooting and found out by looking at the task it's designed to stop at that point. Because of this I have to make my way to the Feeds setting in IE to stop then restart it so it'll run for another 3 days.

I might reboot my WinXP SP2 machines twice a month: My RSS Feeds are checked without fail every 4 hours, exactly as I've configured it.
