What exactly does this "Automatic Update Expiration" mean? What can't be updated after that? Is there no way to install third-party equivalents?
I asked this because for many people, me included, disabling automatic updates is the first thing they do after installing a fresh Windows. So it's a bit unclear why "Automatic Update Expiration" is a problem for someone who never owns a Chromebook.
Or you can enable Lacros and it will continue to get Chrome updates separate from the OS. Or you can install Chrome OS Flex and it will continue to get Chrome OS updates directly from Google, with no support guarantees. Or you can install Chromium OS and update it yourself.
