Fwd: Update Debian 12.2

Hello,

With the latest update, in dual boot Windows 11 is no longer recognized by grub ;-(

We must manually edit and modify /etc/default/grub

and remove the # symbol which was added by mistake

#GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER="false"

It would be good to quickly correct this for users who do not know how to correct such a problem...

Regards.

Philippe

It was not a mistake. It is a deliberate change by the upstream Grub
maintainers.
