Odd that MSFT’s in-house lawyers allowed this particular communication. It applies no matter how few may be affected. No matter how few people may still be using Windows 8.1, it’s hard for me to see how those users wouldn’t have a case of breach of contract against MSFT if MSFT were foolish enough not to support OneDrive integration until EOS.That’s one of the wonderful things about the law, at least common law in the US. OTOH, Windows 8.1 is still in support until early 2023, and I believe OneDrive support was baked into Windows 8.1. NBD for Windows 8, which MSFT has been clear became outdated with the arrival of Windows 8.1. NBD for Windows 7, which reached EOS more than a year ago. It would seem MSFT is intent upon testing the limits of contract law as they apply to EULAs and the precise meaning of support.
