| Feature | Details and mitigation | Deprecation announced |

| Line printer daemon (LPR/LPD) <!--9787121--> | Deprecation reminder: [The line printer daemon protocol (LPR/LPD) was deprecated](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-R2-and-2012/hh831568(v=ws.11)#printing) starting in Windows Server 2012. As removal of the line printer daemon protocol nears, we'd like to remind customers to ensure their environments are prepared for removal. When these features are eventually removed, clients that print to a server using this protocol, such as UNIX clients, will not be able to connect or print. Instead, UNIX clients should use IPP. Windows clients can connect to UNIX shared printers using the [Windows Standard Port Monitor](/troubleshoot/windows-server/printing/standard-port-monitor-for-tcpip). | [Original announcement: Windows Server 2012](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-server-2012-R2-and-2012/hh831568(v=ws.11)#printing) </br> <br> Courtesy reminder: February 2025 |
| Location History <!--9798092--> | We are deprecating and removing the Location History feature, an [API](/uwp/api/windows.devices.geolocation.geolocator.getgeopositionhistoryasync) that allowed Cortana to access 24 hours of device history when location was enabled. With the removal of the Location History feature, location data will no longer be saved locally and the corresponding settings will also be removed from the **Privacy & Security** > **Location** page in **Settings**. | February 2025 |
| Suggested actions <!--9614241-->| Suggested actions that appear when you copy a phone number or future date in Windows 11 are deprecated and will be removed in a future Windows 11 update. | December 2024 |

The following functionality won't work when these services are fully retired: </br><ul><li>Playback of protected content in the legacy Windows Media Player on Windows 7</li><li> Playback of protected content in a Silverlight client and Windows 8 clients</li><li> In-home streaming playback from a Silverlight client or Windows 8 client to an Xbox 360</li><li>Playback of protected content ripped from a personal CD on Windows 7 clients using Windows Media Player </li></ul> | September 2024 |
