    While development had stopped for Windows Media Center back in 2009, users were holding hope that it may make a comeback in Windows 10. Microsoft confirmed to ZDNet that Windows Media Center is indeed finished, and users who upgrade to Windows 10 will no longer see it.

    For what I used it for, it worked well for me; especially loading files on an SD card. Hope the replacement is more versatile than this was.

    I'm a cord cutter, and I've been using Media Center for years now to watch local TV with a TV tuner. I've paid for the 8.1 Pro Pack to get Media Center.

    If I cannot find another solution for my local TV viewing, this will be the first time ever that I don't upgrade Windows. I have always upgraded on release date.

    Thanks Microsoft for alienating a loyal and longterm desktop Windows user!
