  Be warned though that some installers will yell at you for not having a “compatible version of Windows”. Its rare, but some apps don’t like the enterprise editions.

    I haven’t experienced this with years of Enterprise use, but back when I was on Win 7 LTSC until its very end, I did get yelled at that my Windows was too old, even if it was still under official support. But then again I suppose devs don’t expect people to try to run games on heart monitors or industrial equipment xd (or whatever else LTSC was intended for)

    Iv already started seeing games with older versions of BE and EAC say consumer windows 10 isn’t supported any more and not working.

    Trying to stay on windows 10 and be a gamer is quickly going to become a nightmare with more compatibility issues then Linux.

      At this rate we’ll need a Wine/Proton that runs on Windows to allow you to run Windows software.

    My brother used to use enterprise windows 10 until he started having that vary issue with trying to play COD.

      Damn, I guess he can’t play the same game that’s been rereleased annually for 20 years then huh. What a bummer

  I’m banking on the world ending before then. Or I get an incurable cancer. Either way, fuck Microsoft.

    It’s the barest of bones. I use it for one of my consulting machines in the times I’m forced to run windows.

      I use W10 Enterprice IoT LTSC for everything. Mainly for gaming. No problems at all, though I play single player games only.
