    That looks like a nightmare.

    Windows 11 ltsc is interesting in that its like a time capsule. More like Windows 7 than 10. Has no Microsoft store, no onedrive, no game bar. And has old Microsoft paint, calculator, and notepad from Windows 10 with no tabs.

    There’s not really anything to uninstall. And it just gets security updates. Its a bare bones OS that feels closer to Linux because of that without the crap that even Windows 10 had showing tiktok and meta in the start menu to remove.

      Ah. Yes, it appears I’ve been using the ESU option. That was the simplest thing to do.
      I use the registration utility from massgrave, added 3 years to my registration.

      massgrave.dev/windows10_eol

      But right there on that page, they cover Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021.
      It sounds like that’s what I need. Stripped down Win10. I like that idea.
      Thanks, friend.

        Yeah, IOT is the version to choose at install with it getting 10 years of support compared to 5 years for the regulad enterprise.

      I have a laptop still running Win10. I’ll look into this. Thx.
