FAQ:
>How do I activate Windows?
HWID2 generates and registers a permanent legitimate license on MS's activation servers
github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts
Usage: paste this into Powershell, run.

irm https://get.activated.win | iex

>and Office?
Same link, select Ohook option
You can also use Office.com if your needs are very minimal
or try OnlyOffice/LibreOffice and set it to save in MSOffice file formats

>What version should I install?
>W10 Enterprise IoT LTSC 2021
Binary identical to Enterprise except no MS Store or apps
Preinstalled with: Edge & Win32 system apps
10 years support on "IoT LTSC", 5 for "LTSC"
Manual version upgrades

>W11 Enterprise IoT LTSC 2024
Same as W10 version except:
UI written in React Native aka JavaScript including: Start, Taskbar and Explorer that lags even on i9s
Use only if you fell for the 12th+ gen Intel meme and need the new CPU scheduler
Wait for IoT LTSC 2027 if you can

>Installing apps on LTSC
Use WinGet/Scoop or install MS Store in CMD with: wsreset -i

I installed W11 Pro on another machine just fine, selecting "I don't have a product key" then using MAS later.
I'm trying to install it on a new system now and I get the error "setup has failed to validate the product key" when choosing no product key.
How can I fix this?

Guys searching after pressing Windows button is not working in Windows 11. I just updated to Windows 11 btw. On Win 10, I just used to press windows button and start typing and it would show me result. It's not working like that anymore. What's more I can't interact with the Start menu at all. If I try to click on it, it just disappears. Any fixes?

Reassure me that putting Docker into a WSL2 environment is a viable and sound way to use it.

Just upgraded an old laptop to W10 IoT LTSC; noticably faster especially for 4 GB of RAM. Unfortunately had to install Linux Mint on a decade old laptop from the W7 era, but at least it comes with PGP built in so I can buy drugs.
>>
Also, what are y'all thoughts on the future of Windows? Will W12 become a subscription based product like how most applications are becoming nowadays? 2026: You will own nothing, you will compute nothing, and you will be happy.

W11 will be my last Windows, then.

Is there a way to make it show the full path instead of the breadcrumbs? Or at least make it smaller so it shows the entire thing without making the window as wide as my monitor?
I like the new explorer, but this issue makes it fucking shit.

I'm amazed that you're capable of solving the captcha considering how retarded you are. I thought it would filter sub 50IQ people.
Are you using a pass?

>Will W12 become a subscription based product like how most applications are becoming nowadays?
will MAS crack the activation system ten seconds after it comes out?
>>
>>108626666
If Windows 12 actually ends up being fully cloud and subscription based people will stay on 11 as long as they can, or the MAS team will figure out a way to get it to work locally and free.
>>
>>108626666
There will always be corporate and government airgapped systems and ms will not abandon that market any time soon. Worst case scenario is two separately maintained products much like office in browser and real office, or windows 9x and NT.
