From 7c280452dee4efc3367d85721680f888d37f46fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Yigit Akcay Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2023 16:32:42 +0200 Subject: Add Windows 11 related note for Geolocation settings There are 3 OS settings under Windows 11 that need to be enabled for the HTML5 Geolocation in QtWebEngine to work properly. This isn't very straightforward to a user, therefore this patch adds a note to the documentation.
