CompTIA A+ Core 2 (220-1002) — Question 129

Six months after a new version of an OS was released to the market, end users began to lose access to application updates. Which of the following was MOST likely the reason for this issue?

Answer options

• A. Update limitations
• B. Limited access
• C. End-of-life
• D. Network connection

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as software typically reaches an end-of-life stage after a certain period, leading to the cessation of updates. Options A and B do not address the underlying lifecycle of the software, while D suggests a connectivity issue, which is less likely to be the reason for losing access to updates after a specific time frame.
