Guides and SmartGuides not showing in Illustrator 25
Guides and SmartGuides are not activating. I have tried every fix suggested in forums, all the way to uninstalling, cleaning with the provided cleanup tool, and reinstalling. Still, the guides don't show. Have toggled every snap feature in every possible combination, they still don't show up.

My setting are identical, thanks Jimmy. And yes I've done the control+U and every view menu option, as stated. Thanks for responding though.

You may have already tried this Sandy - first make sure View > Smart Guides is on (CMD-U or CTRL-U), and disable Snap to Grid or any other snaps. By default I leave Snap to Point on. I know this is problematic for me at times with Snap to Grid overriding Smart Guides. Restarting Illustrator can also restore functionality. Since it sounds like you have tried all that, I would double check the Smart Guides settings under preferences. Perhaps the tolerance was changed. I'd hope reinstalling or resetting Illustrator's preferences would have solved this for you too, but here are my settings if it helps. Good luck.
