Windows 11 began to become obsolete: Microsoft warned about automatic updating of the PC to the latest version of the OS

Microsoft has warned Windows 11 users that computers running the very first version of the Windows 11 21H2 operating system are already starting to automatically upgrade to the newer version of Windows 11 22H2.
Recall that the release of Windows 11 took place in October 2021, just in version 21H2. Last autumn, in September 222, version 21H2 was released.
We note right away that support for Windows 11 21H2 will not end today or even tomorrow – Microsoft will continue to release updates for it until October 10, 2023. Now, however, the automatic transition of users’ PC systems to a fresher version of the OS has already begun. Consumer and business PCs running Windows 11 version 21H2 Home and Pro will be updated.
Microsoft explained:
Automatic upgrades to Windows 11 version 22H2 will occur gradually, starting with devices that have been using version 21H2 for the longest period of time. As always, you will have the option to choose a convenient time to restart your device and complete the update.
The developers also emphasized that customer reviews show a positive experience with Windows 11 version 22H2.

Android Auto has a strange GPS issue

In the past few days, users of the Android Auto car platform have begun to complain about the problem with GPS when using Google Maps (Google Maps).
The problem, in which the inscription “Searching GPS” is displayed, was faced by users of different car models, with different models of smartphones and versions of Android Auto.
As noted on the profile resource 9to5google.com, it is strange that the problem does not occur when using the Google Maps application outside of Android Auto. Additionally, users have reported that the issue only occurs after the phone has been put to sleep with the screen turned off.
A guaranteed working solution has not yet been developed. For some users, the crash went away after they gave the Google Maps app on their smartphone the “Always Allowed” permission to access location data. For others, everything returned to normal after turning off the power saving mode. These solutions don’t really explain why this issue only occurred in the last few days.
