Yes I was referring to the MSN app. Strange it's not working. I was going to see if I could download it again but the store say unavailable.

Thanks my friend. 

So if they discontinued it why put "We've moved"? Was it that important they had to remove it from 8?

I have the regular MSN weather app for 8.1 too and if I try to open it, it will try to load but just freezes up in the end.

I can dual boot to a Windows 8.0 installation on my computer and if I try to open the weather app there (same default app), nothing will happen (it doesn't even try to load). It's just a tile on my start menu now.

Hmm...

I use adni18's weather app. It has never had a bleep nor bloop nor anything else since I installed it months ago. What ever app it uses it works and that all I need.

I use XWidget. WC seems to be anti-XWidget as I know of only one other person at WC who uses it. That's not the only reason I say that. I wonder other than Junior Crooks and myself who else who is a WC member uses XWidget.  XWidget is good - period. End of story. I recommend trying XWidget.

Hmmm... MS retiring the MSN Weather app is not a good sign. Luckily I just tried it here on Nexus/Winstep Xtreme and the MSN feed itself is still working. Let's see for how long.

The Winstep weather module/widget relies on more than one feed so it doesn't stop working altogether if one feed goes down (initially NOAA, Weather.com, MSN, Yahoo and Google), but all the existing weather feeds are slowly being 'retired'.

First it was the Google weather feed (killed off completely a couple of years ago) then Yahoo recently put their feed behind AUTH authentication (they gave me a key, but implementing AUTH authentication is not trivial and would probably require a third party DLL so, at least for now, no Yahoo feed either).

That leaves NOAA which has no forecast and is only available for locations that have an airport/METAR code, Weather.com, and MSN. The idea is to have a backup feed to give me time to fix things in the background in case the main provider (usually weather.com) goes down or makes changes to the protocol - but I am slowly running out of those backup feeds too.

Even having backup feeds is no guarantee - for instance, NOAA recently put their feed behind HTTPS instead of HTTP, and this made their feed fail in such a way that it did not trigger the Winstep application to use the backup feed for current weather conditions causing the current temperature to always appear as N/A. Fixed now, of course.

What I do and I did this with Rainys, DX Weather Widgets and now Xwidget. I admit that I use what others have done as a base but then I take the files from the Windowblind I am making the widget for and make the widget. Not very original I admit. Sometimes you have to really tweak the graphics to get a decent quality image. By tweak I mean mainly resizing. Getting things to line up can be a challenge. There are tricks.

As far as uploading to WC goes that's pretty much at a standstill for me right now other than screenshots. I suppose I could make Rainys but the ones I make are with the old version of Rainleander.

I also make tabbed docks. Object Dock and DesktopX aren't supported by Stardock anymore!

I use XWidget widgets for myself. I'm happy with that.

Ditto here....   

I meant the gadgets, Nikos. sorry for being unclear.  I don't care for Rainmeter.
