RSS feeds in IE not updating after upgrade from Vista to Win7

  • Article

I noticed that my RSS feeds in IE are no longer updating after upgrading from Vista to Windows 7 beta.

Thanks for the very helpful blog entry “ Feeds not updating? ” by Walter vonKoch over the RSS team blog, I was able to fix the issue easily by running the following simple steps at the command prompt.

msfeedssync disable

msfeedssync enable

Hope this helps.
