📝 Option 2: Add PDF to a Post or Page

1. Create a post or page where you want the PDF to appear.
2. Enter the post name.

If you’ve noticed a mysterious blue box slowly scanning across your iPhone screen and your touch isn’t responding like usual, chances are Switch Control has been accidentally turned on. It’s an accessibility feature designed to help users with limited mobility navigate their device using external switches or gestures. But when activated unintentionally, it can feel like your phone has a mind of its own.

This feature highlights screen elements with a blue outline and cycles through them automatically. You’ll likely find the interface unresponsive to normal taps unless you’re familiar with its control method—which can be frustrating.

Fortunately, disabling it is easy:

1. Try triple-clicking the Side button (or Home button, depending on your model). This shortcut often deactivates accessibility tools like Switch Control or VoiceOver.
2. If that doesn’t work, open your Settings, then go to Accessibility > Switch Control, and toggle it off manually.
3. Still stuck? Just ask Siri: “Turn off Switch Control.”

Once disabled, the blue box will disappear, and your phone should return to normal. This feature is helpful when used intentionally, but can be easily triggered by accident—especially after iOS updates or while poking around in settings.

4. Click Restore, and they’ll be returned to their original location.

Option 2: Restore OneDrive from a Previous Version

1. Open OneDrive on your computer File Explorer.
2. Right-click the file you want to restore.
3. Click Restore previous version.
4. Click Previous Version and choose an earlier version to restore.
5. Click Restore.
6. Restore the file or folder to their original location or select a folder you want to restore to.
7. The file has been restored.

Option 3: Restore Your Entire OneDrive (For Major Losses)

2. Click the gear icon (⚙️) in the top-right corner and select Restore your OneDrive.

If your files were deleted more than 30 days ago, they may no longer be recoverable. Let me know if you need help checking other backup options! 🚀

If Your Windows 11 shows Your version of windows has reached the end of service and clicking “Check for updates” doesn’t show any new updates, you may need to Manually Upgrade Windows 11.

Check Your Windows Version.

Press Windows + R, type winver, and hit Enter.

If your version is 21H2 or 22H2, it’s outdated and no longer supported.

Manually Upgrade Windows 11

Download the Windows 11 Installation Assistant from Microsoft’s official site.

Run the tool and follow the instructions to upgrade to the latest version.

Choose “Keep personal files and apps” to avoid losing data.

If your Windows 11 shows “end of service” but no updates are found, follow these steps to resolve the issue:

### 1. **Confirm Your Windows Version**

   – Go to **Settings > System > About**.

   – Check the **Version** (e.g., 21H2, 22H2, 23H2). If it’s 21H2 or older, it may no longer be supported.

### 2. **Manually Update Using Microsoft Tools**

   If Windows Update isn’t offering the latest version:

   – **Download the Windows 11 Installation Assistant** from [Microsoft’s website](https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11).

   – Run the tool to force an upgrade to the latest version (e.g., 23H2).

### 3. **Use the Media Creation Tool**

   – Alternatively, use the [Media Creation Tool](https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11) to create installation media and update manually.

### 4. **Check for Hardware Compatibility**

   – Ensure your PC meets [Windows 11 requirements](https://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-11-specifications). If not, you may need to stick with Windows 10 or upgrade hardware.

### 5. **Troubleshoot Windows Update**

   – Run the **Windows Update Troubleshooter**:

     – Go to **Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters > Windows Update**.

   – Reset Windows Update components manually via Command Prompt (admin):

     “`bash

     net stop wuauserv

     net stop cryptSvc

     net stop bits

     net stop msiserver

     ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

     ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old

     net start wuauserv

     net start cryptSvc

     net start bits

     net start msiserver

     “`

### 6. **Check for Optional Updates**

   – Go to **Settings > Windows Update > Advanced Options > Optional Updates**. Install any pending driver/software updates.

### 7. **Free Up Disk Space**

   – Ensure at least **20 GB of free space** for updates. Clean up via **Settings > System > Storage**.

### 8. **Check for Insider Preview Expiration**

   – If using an Insider Preview build, switch to the Stable Channel or reinstall a stable version via a clean install.

### 9. **Contact Support**

   – If issues persist, contact [Microsoft Support](https://support.microsoft.com) or your organization’s IT team (if applicable).

### Why This Happens:

– Older Windows 11 versions (e.g., 21H2) reach “end of service” and stop receiving updates.

– Feature updates may not auto-download due to phased rollouts, compatibility issues, or Update component errors.

By manually updating or troubleshooting, you should resolve the warning and regain support.
