Just found out that Windows Spotlight is a thing for the wallpaper now. If it's going to change more than once, why doesn't it have a fade transition? Would make it less distracting/jarring
Is it just me or does the LTSC cumulative updates feel smoother/quicker to install now the 21H2 updates are now focused on LTSC?

Why would my work laptop display at full 4K on my TV but not support my ultra wide monitor which is less than 4K? It’s a work laptop so all drivers and things are locked down. Anything I can do? It’s windows 10.

I'll be installing Windows 10 IoT LTSC (2021) on saturday, what (preferably foss) software do you bros use instead of microsoft store apps? I'm particularly interested in alternatives for microsoft photos or windows image viewer, paint, and snipping tool. I already know I will be using Firefox-ESR, 7-Zip, qBittorrent, JDownloader-2, Notepad++, VLC. But I'm not happy with any image editors or image viewers I've tried on W11.
I have an old phenom II quad core system with 4 gigs if memory. I need w10 on it. Are there any lightweight iso images out there ir do I need to cook one? Machine will be 100% offline.

I am sick of windoze constantly being CPU hungry.
>>101888944it's a GPU thing, I doubt Windows is the issue
>>101895278Have you tried looking at Task Manager and see what is demanding so much CPU?You aren't on hardware older than 3rd gen i5/i7, right?
>Should I debloat / build my own ISO?>If you need to ask, then no, you WILL break somethingoh well, there goes my question.so what's the alternative? privatezilla only or something else?
I'm new-ish to windows (last used it back in middle school, xp days). I've got a new gaming rig and I'm about halfway done putting it together. Jus realized I need an OS. The sticky mentions ISO's, are people still burning CD's? I never even thought to buy a CD drive.If I download one of these ISO's, am I going to shoot myself in the foot next time I've got to reinstall or reformat? I imagine it would just work, kinda like my macbook.
>Windows 10 Enterprise IoT LTSC 2021Does this have to be a fresh install or can I "upgrade". I remember seeing somewhere that you have to modify the registry to upgrade.
>>101895467It’s weird. For example, when I am using Firefox in Ubuntu I can’t hear the fan. Using Firefox on Windows is a whole another story, I don’t know if it’s just Firefox Windows port being shitty or what
>>101887025read through the whole last thread. thank you OP, you are maybe a bit less of a faggot.will install w10 entrp iot ltsc this weekend.also thanks to the anon who linked me the thread on a linux thread.
>>101895639Fan control being different between each systems?
>>101895775It’s auto on both. I don’t really mess with these things
>>101890189That would be regex related. Old /qa/ before the frogjak psychos destroyed it discussed 4chanX regex at length.https://desuarchive.org/qa/thread/3890044/#3891167
>>101895506You don’t need a CD or a CD drive. Just put the ISO on a large USB stick and use Rufus.
>>101895639I tend to not hear the fan on any of my machines (all run Windows except the cheap old Probook 6470 that I've been testing out Ubuntu 22.04 on) if I run Firefox on its own.The Probook is shitty in a handful of ways, I've been discovering.
>>101887530>but Defender is good enoughas long as it being a CPU hog is a non-issue for the loser asking (rare/unlikely)Best thing to do with Defender is to disable its realtime scanner in Group Policy. However, it will re-enable itself if you do not disable Tamper Protection first.

>>101890189I'm not aware of a way to create a filter for a _combination_ of file size and image dimension. 4chan-x isn't that advanced. You'll have to create filters for one or the other. Read the guide in the filter dropdown menu and refer to https://regex101.com/ if you need to practice your regex.
>>101890189>>101897488Also if the reason you want a combination is because you're trying to filter specific images, filter the image MD5.
>>101897488>>101897536Nah, I was looking to filter specific dimensions under a specific filesize. It says it can support it under the general filters but I can't for the life of me figure it out. >Types can also be combined with a + sign; this indicates the filter applies to the given fields joined by newlines.For example: type:filename+filesize+dimensions;.
>>101897575I think that's for changing the types of fields that a general filter applies to. Normally it's subject, name, file name, and comment. If you wanted 4chan-x to also check the image dimensions and file size fields for a certain rule, it would be something like this:/your filter here/;type:subject,name,filename,comment,dimensions,filesizeBut if you want something like IF dimensions == x AND filesize == Y THEN filter the post, I don't know of a way to do that. Good luck.

>>101887025
>>101887025Perhaps this is the wrong call, but I'd rather ask here than fucking reddit or something.I bought a new cheap Lenovo laptop since my old one died, v14, the version with the smaller battery (Because I wanna put my old HDD on it), 12th gen i3 (1215).But it comes with win11 preinstalled, now, despite mot using it before, I kinda hate the idea of switching to win 11, since I was already used to win 10, and I just dislike switching systems since the jump from win7 to win8 back then, I hate the idea of losing even more control of my own system, with shit like how win10 had you running in circles and fucking with the registry just to disable updates.I already have a win10 installation USB ready, but I'm having second thoughts since I goggled it and saw some stuff about incompatibility with 12th generation intel CPUs or how win 11 is faster. Now, as someone who can semi-competently handle a computer, but can't do more complex things like debloating or using anything more difficult than linux mint, is it a good idea to downgrade to win 10 or should I keep the win 11 that comes installed?Is win 11 worth it in comparison?Should I just kill myself?
>>101899368Windows 11 is good
>>101899452Until someone cracks into window's mainframe and steals all your personal data via the copilot recall.

Okay, so I found this ISO: en-us_windows_10_iot_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64_dvd_257ad90f.isoAnd am going to follow these instructions to create a bootable USB (I'm on a Macbook) https://www.pugetsystems.com/support/guides/w11-usb-macos/That should be it, right? Or do I need to buy a key? Was going to buy one from https://vendafly.com/All these sounds sound so iffy lol
>>101900561The best way to make a Windows install USB on Mac is to make it manually via mounting the ISO, formatting a USB as FAT32, copying everything from the ISO to the USB besides the sources folder, copy over everything from said folder except the install.wim, then install wimlib through homebrew (install if you don't have it) and use that to split the install.wim file in two pieces so it fits on the FAT32 USB (one 4GB, one 700MB or so.)After that, you should be able to unmount the USB and ISO and use it to install Windows without issue.

>>101901436And how does this in any way, shape, or form affect your privacy? The ClockButton, PeopleButton, StartButton number of interaction/clicks isn't even sent if you set diagnostic data to 0 and disable the connected user experiences and telemetry service. But even if it was sent by default on a W10 Home machine how exactly does it affect you personally whatever your first and last name are, whatever your home address is, whatever your phone number is, whatever your age is, whatever your gender is, whatever your race is, whatever your hair color/texture is, etc. it quite literally has nothing identifiable about you, its just anonymous telemetry for ms to see what features are actually used and what can be scrapped

Are AMD software and AMD graphics drivers different? I can't open my AMD software anymore since I updated it. I ran the AMD's compatibility software, but it shows that I have no AMD software installed. What should I do?
>>101904506Windows usually ships with generic drivers, then on the first connection to internet it grabs the barebone driver only AMD/NVIDIA stuff for you that's usually a few versions out of date. If you install AMD from their own site to get the latest version you are offered three choices: Driver Only (What you already have but updated), Minimal, Full. Both minimal and full are actually not drivers but the specific Adrenalin Suite software that lets you tinker with your gpu settings and do other shit. I'm assuming you installed windows, updated it, then downloaded the latest amd adrenaline and installed it then got this error? If so you probably picked the wrong GPU on the site
>>101904506IMO you should probably just DDU your driver and re-install it
>>101904544I recently updated the AMD driver through Windows Update, along with other updates that I had postponed for months.>>101904892What is DDU? Sorry, I'm not very tech-savvy. I googled it and found out that it's used to uninstall display drivers. Will it also affect my NVIDIA driver? Can I uninstall the AMD Adrenalin software through the Control Panel's uninstaller instead? Or... should I just leave it and hope for miracle to happen?For context, my laptop has an AMD Ryzen 5 8645HS and an RTX 4050. I need the iGPU to save power, so should I leave it as is, or do I need to reinstall the driver?
>>101904506>>101905827For igpu laptops you need to grab the driver directly from the laptop maker instead of the amd/nvidia website. the generic gpu driver is for dedicated gpus.
>>101905851Ah, I see... So next time, I should update the driver through Lenovo Vantage or Lenovo's website rather than through Windows Update. Good to know for the future. Are there any drivers that I should avoid updating via Windows Update?Also, how should I reinstall the driver? Should I uninstall it using DDU, or is it fine to uninstall it through the Control Panel/Windows app settings?Is this the correct driver that I should download? https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/gaming-series/loq-15ahp9/downloads/ds567039-amd-vga-driver-for-windows-11-64-bit-loq-15ahp9?category=Graphics%20CardSorry for asking so many questions or if I seem to be annoying.
>>101906034Yeah you run DDU first (it will ask you reboot in safe mode to do its thing) and after its done and rebooted you install the drivers from lenovo.
>>101906034>Are there any drivers that I should avoid updating via Windows Update?basically dont ever touch those. grab directly from manufacturer if you need it.
>>101906034>Download DDU>Download the GPU driver installer from your OEM>Disable your internet then restart into safe mode>Open DDU and delete your AMD driver and files>Boot back into normal mode>Install the OEM GPU driver package>After it's all installed, reconnect
>>101895639situation has been drastically improved ever since I quit that Razer's malware (Synapse)
>>101906064>>101906096Thanks, anon, I'll keep that in mind.>>101906108Thanks, This is exactly what I needed, especially since I'm not very tech-savvy. I'll try to reinstall it over the weekend or during Golden Week. I'm just a bit worried that if something goes wrong, it might affect my laptop, and I really need it for work stuff.
>>101906234Nothing should go wrong because all you're doing is removing the graphic driver, which then Windows will default to a basic graphics adapter when you return out of safe mode until you re-install the new driver. You disable the internet beforehand so Windows Update doesn't re-install its own AMD driver.

Since this morning, my Windows 11 computer won't access the internet through my main 6G network (it connects to the network, but cannot reach DHCP server). That said, if I log in to my guest network instead, then the computer it will gladly access the internet. The thing is, my main network is looks fine, I have several other devices that all connects to it through wifi, none of them has any problems.Are the glowies out to get me or is there a way to fix this?
I hate win11 I hate the taskbar being locked to the bottomThe explorer is shit, the folders dont default to correct view, theres some insanely asstastic automatic grouping going on, the right click context menu is horribleEverything about the UI begs for using external tools to fix them which wasnt the case with win10

Help me out here>Have certain parts of all my users drive backed up via OneDrive, including the desktop >After a wipe OneDrive puts all the desktop icons back as it installs apps via Intune>Windows saves desktop icons in the localappdata directory, this does not get backed up via OneDrive backups>after any wipe ever most icons are just broken/blank and opening the app/shortcut/whatever does not re-add the icon to the desktopHow to fix this? I know it's not a big deal but it just looks ugly as all fuck, dunno why Microsoft would hide the icon locations in a hidden directory like localappdata or whatever else.This is also ignoring duplicate creations of the same desktop shortcuts, sometimes users have 4 Edge icons alongside like 3 Edge (Work) icons, which I thought Edge (Work) was being discontinued or something so why is this trash even getting placed on the desktop anyway

Are these online CD Key resellers in any way legit? I see them selling Windows 10 / 11 Pro keys for 1/4 the price of the Home > Pro upgrade that's available in the Microsoft store.

>>101894257What's up with websites like this one which makes them so stuttery when scrolling on firefox?
>>101910254web devs literally don't care about firefox anymore. if it works on chromium and maybe safari they call it a day
>>101910201Pretty sure people just sell OEM licenses on the cheap, like if you have 50 laptops that have Windows 10 but they're all essentially ewaste you could just harvest their licenses and resell the licenses on gmg or what, only the license are meant for a specific devices/models so Microsoft will know what you've done and your license could be revoked on their whim
>>101910254firefox has shitty font rendering and hw acceleration compared to chrome.

>>101910396I know but just look at that website, it's a fucking table. There's no way hw acceleration can be compulsory to render that.
>>101910427when you click on a name it brings up whole animation slide and shit. firefox struggles trying to do font and renders at same time.

>>101892455Write a script, python or power shell. Have gpt write it for you if you’re a no coder.
>>101910989Turn off backup - documents
>>101911019OK thanks anon.
>>101911140It’s very very easy to miss in the install. That action will break the symlink, and you’ll have normal local documents and cloud documents
>>101911391Yeah I don't want drama of lost folders and files.
erm?! Windows 10 LTSC sissies? Why are we losing in every single game benchmark to Windows 11 LTSC BVLLS? I thought Windows 11 was bad sisters? It's consistent across repeated benchmarks... What's our narrative and cope gonna be now..?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I2KNDZyzQF0
>>101912567You didn't read the article posted here weeks ago? Windows is big mad that most of their customers are on win11 so they are making a more aggressive push to get people onto win11 to save their copilots abyssal use numbers so they don't have to waste money and axe the project.
>>1019125675fps difference wow
>>101912901Not in every game, in one game it was more like 25fps. So if it's consistently better in every single game, and in some games it's by such a massive margin, just imagine how many games you are playing where every single fps drop you have could be completely gone by becoming a W11 LTSC GOD. Stop the cope, and embrace W11.
>>101912567>13th gen cpuThat's all there is to it.The ecore/pcore scheduler thing is made for win11 only.
>>101912939*intel

I'm making it unfriendly!

Windhawk is the thread by which I still hang onto Windows. I fixed many taskbar regressions, I just wish I could get quicklaunch back. Oh and windhawk also helped with making start menu usable again. But I am getting real tired of fighting Microsoft, idk how much longer can this go on
HOW DO I PERMANENTLY KILL COPILOT? ITS ON MY FUCKING BAR NOW AND IT WON'T COME OFF, IT JUST TURNS INVISIBLE. PLEASE LADS HELP A BROTHER IN NEED.
>>101913772MS is actively fighting back against people changing their Windows looks/feels these days for whatever corpo reason. IIRC 24H2 is gonna be even worse about it.
>>101913783ou can run either "winget uninstall Microsoft.Windows.Ai.Copilot.Provider" or Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows.Ai.Copilot.Provider | Remove-AppxPackage in PowerShell/terminal and that will remove the CoPilot application from your installed apps in Settings. If you have W10 Pro/Edu/Enterprise, you can set a Group Policy Option that will disable Copilot functionality and it should remain disabled.
Was told to pose my question I foolishly created a thread for here. If anyone knows, it'd be great. If not, I'm probably gonna have my reinstall usb ready within the next few hours.>>101914758
>>101913772What the heck are you doing that requires intense "fighting"?Why do you want Quicklaunch? Just pin most used programs to the taskbar. It accomplishes the same thing.>>101908888for you>>101908810same instructions as for Win10, Win11 is fundamentally a tweaked Win10 with a reskin
>>1019148274chan just isn't the right place to come to for help with serious issues.The site I would recommend gets shat on senselessly here. I'm not trying to be mean, that place blows this one out of the water and out of planetary orbit for a number of reasons. 4chan is just a rather different crowd and fairly mediocre tech support.All that said, have you tried checking Event Viewer to find out what has broken? Event Viewer is one of your best friends when Windows or some part of it breaks. I myself was frustrated with my Asus A17 slowing to a crawl to use until I figured out that stupid Windows Update fucked up my Radeon Control Panel. Going into Safe Mode to further investigate and run chkdsk/dism/sfc to rule out the issue allowed me to later boot into a normally working Windows. Then I re-installed my Radeon software and voila, fixed properly.
>>101900107You would have to be the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for me to believe that. >>101900375Hmmm. I'll look into it but for the most part each successive update to Windows has just made it worse. Unless there's something you truly just can't run on 7 or 10 I wouldn't do it.
what do you guys use to encrypt your files? i plan to download everything from my onedrive/gdrive, encrypt them, and reupload them across onedrive/gdrive/whatever. i heard veracrypt is good but isn't that only for partitions of a drive or can i encrypt individual files & folders with it too?
>>101915631Recall is only for Copilot PCs, you ignorant moron. Everyone literally uses hardware running Intel or AMD chipsets instead of ARM. That's why none of us with W11 have Recall.
If you're not gonna updoot I hope you don't have IPv6 enabled
>>101915930And otherwise, Recall is opt-in now. People still death spiraling about it haven't taken their heads out the sand.>>101917152I don't understand the anons that don't install monthly updates for whatever reason.
>>101915930>>101917384Nope. Never touching the OS under any circumstances.
>>101917152So I'm guessing the fix for this was in the recent August update?
>>101915905I just do it manually with 7zip. Save a local copy to my external HDD and make an encrypted copy to upload to the (((cloud))).
>>101917384>I don't understand the anons that don't install monthly updates for whatever reasonIf they don't want updates that change how their systems work all they have to do is install IoT LTSCIf they're too retarded to do that and leave their systems vulnerable to zero-click attacks where just having Windows running and connected to the internet makes you vulnerable, then they deserve to have chinks and slavs running code on their machine remotly
My windows 11 time keeps changing every half an hour, help
>>101918048Change to a different time server and see if that fixes it
>>101900462The only reason why I'm not upgrading to 11 is M$ fucking up the taskbar - I can't have layered windows on the left of the screen. I will probably switch to Linux before I go to 11.
so how does WSL work? can I install it on top of my existing W10 installation?
>>101918880yes. and no it's not a vm
>>101887025What's the best software I can use to debloat Win 11?
so are there any *actual* differences between IoT and non-IoT outside of update support?I'm generally fine with 3 years of support so 2027 vs 2032 makes no difference to me
>>101919467There are differences between each edition, obviously IoT Enterprise and Enterprise are not identical, there'll be some services added or missing, some changes in default settings, some apps added or missing, some requirements added or missing, etc. But for the most part assuming general desktop use like browsing the webs and playing vidya there's no real difference between them, so you'd just be choosing less security updates and no hardware activation if you choose Enterprise over IoT Enterprise. And in general IoT Enterprise targets weak computers, meaning that Microsoft tries to remove all restrictions and make it as small as possible to allow installing on as many appliances as possible, as it's not really intended for normal computers. This means that in versions like W11 it's the only edition that supports installation on old CPUs
>>101919516KMS_VL_ALL has been able to activate IoT LTSC and MAS HWID has been able to activate base LTSC for ages now
>>101919810>KMS_VL_ALL has been able to activate IoT LTSCWhen did I say otherwise?>MAS HWID has been able to activate base LTSC for ages nowSource?
>>101919830Says on the website. It basically uses the IoT LTSC code to activate a base LTSC install, if you want to do that.
>>101920104From what I'm seeing on the site Enterprise LTSC isn't supported by MAS HWID. You can convert your installation to IoT Enterprise LTSC sure, but that's not activating the same edition anymore. Or am I missing something?
>Windows isn't activated. Activate Windows now.Why is this happening all of a sudden?Should I just re-run KSM activator thingy?
>>101920232If you used KMS_VL_ALL ages ago you could uninstall it then re-run it with the auto-renewer enabled.
>>101920241I did HWID instead, is that better?
>>101920241Wait - update - Windows seems to be satisfied that it's activated but not Office
>>101920241>>101920331>>101920348I'm sorry friends, just found Ohook, working fine now
These are probably basic bitch questions but I I'm seeing a lot of different answers online and I'm not sure which of them is actually for the problem.Got my first HDR capable monitor this year, the AOC Q27G3XMN. I wanted something with good blacks and good response time for vidya without risking OLED burn in and it seemed like a good pick despite some small issues like black smearing.Is there any way to make everything not seem so washed out and awful? I started playing my first game that had to have me turn on Windows HDR and instead of making this better, everything just looks worse, which isn't what I was expecting.Aside from everything being extremely gray I have a weird bug with MPV. When playing a video things look okay (still washed out) but when I pause a video and either move the window or move my mouse cursor over the window the saturation goes insane, pic related. This has to be a windows hdr problem because it happens even on my second non-hdr monitor.From searching people say to just fuck with color settings/HDR SDR brightness in Windows HD Color settings/Nvidia control panel color settings but nothing I do counters that general bad looking washed out colors, and I've got not clue what the deal is with MPV.
>>101917152i haven't updated in 4 years because i hate how every windows update only bogs down the system but this ipv6 thing has me worried, i'm still on 1909, is it possible to just download this update and nothing else? I'd rather avoid automatic updates like the plague, if not, i'm okay with just leaving ipv6 disabled
>>101921404Just use Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC and you won't have to worry about windows updates causing issues since you will only get security patches. I do suggest getting onto the latest patch though, but it's not as big of a deal as people think. There are a billion vulnerabilities out there on every single OS at all times, but 99% of them are sold to be only executed on targeted specific people/computers.
>>101921437I'll keep LTSC in mind for the future, but it's too much to reinstall everything on my pc just for this bug, and being 4 years out of date, i'd really rather avoid waiting an entire week just for windows to finish updating everything, so i hope it's possible to only and just install this patch without anything else.
>>101921532The only thing it'll do is install the latest cumulative update. The monthly updates work in such a way that you don't need to install every monthly update if you're very behind, just the latest cumulative.
>>101921562Thanks a lot fren, much appreciated
>>101920744>give up on trying to get HDR to look good on general computer use, create simple script to toggle HDR on/off>have to restart computer to get shortcut to work>after restarting computer MPV color blowout problem in MPV while HDR is on is no longer happeningI will never, ever understand what the fuck is going on when using computers in my life.
Why use KMS instead of HWID and Ohook? Is there a reason?
>>101921641HWID is objectively the best if you care about permanent activation, but KMS serves it's purpose on editions of windows that don't support HWID activation. OHook is necessary for Office I believe.
>>101921641It's all a preference of taste, really. HWID is online and gives your install a spot in MS's activation server. KMS lets you activate locally if you want that.Ohook is for permanently activating Office 2013 and above.
>>101921663>>101921664danke schoen
>>101921601HDR is a disaster on every OS bar maybe macOS since it's tightly integrated with hardware.
>>101921664HWID literally stands for Hardware Identification, you can activate your PC with MAS HWID once and you never have to run the script ever again no matter how many reinstalls you do as long as you are using the same motherboard. It's completely offline and local. KMS on the otherhand has to be ran every single time you install the PC, it has to create a service on your PC, and in task scheduler you can see warnings and errors as it tries to fool MS into thinking your shit is activated.
>>101921601we've been stacking new shit on top of old shit for 3 decades now (arguably longer), regardless of what os you're usingnew things which are fundamentally incompatible with old things are an absolute pain in the dick to stackyou'd think HDR wouldn't be that hard really, like why can't SDR stuff just be mapped into HDR space? well in a perfect world where you were able to build a system with both in mind from the beginning, that would be easy, but we don't live in a perfect world, SDR is assumed in a good chunk of the system, and you can't change much of it because you need to be able to run old things at the same time as new things
>>101921762>>101921839mac o's gets away from much of this by just not supporting old software. that is the easiest route
>>101921832Anon you need to be connected to the internet for HWID to work first run. KMS is the local one that doesn't need internet at all.And running KMS_VL_ALL with auto-renew enabled isn't hard.
>>101921878No, they make everyone use their blessed APIs and ensure the APIs to run optimally with HDR.This is contrary to Windows and Linux with 51672 different APIs and rendering frameworks.
>>101921895You don't need to be connected to anything, it's activation that's purely local and connected to your hardware. Once you activate your PC with HWID once it's activated forever. You can go to a forest and do a windows reinstall and it'll still be activated. KMS is an unecessary risk, you have to create a service directly on your PC that's pirated and it has to interact with microsoft directly all the time to fool them into thinking you are activated. Just open your task scheduler and check the errors related to windows activation. I don't understand why people are obsessed with talking about shit they just don't have knowledge about.
>>101887025I just heard about the security thing. I'm on Windows 10. I found some pending updates in the settings, are they for this or will my PC still never get updates since it's not Windows 11?
>>101922930The August cumulative update has the fix for the IPv6 exploit
>>101910989I'm guessing it was you and you dont want your dodgy files spied on lol
for those of you that use mpc-hcdo you change anything?
>>101923017Nope, I configured encrypted backup for all pc/laptops in family using duplicacy, and said family fucked things up by installing onedrive (which itself fucks up volume shadow copy for some reason).No need for onedrive stuff outside of simple backup.

Not sure if anyone can help.I've got a 'tech pc' at work that I like to use to hook up hard drives to for retrieving files/backing up/wiping etc, and I've got all of my SATA ports set to hot plug so I can just hook a drive up quickly etc whenever I want to. The problem is, after some time, it will stop detecting drives i plug in to the hot plug sata ports until I reboot the PC then it will start working for a bit again.This problem didn't occur on my last tech PC i used, it would always detect a drive no matter how long the system was on for.Any idea why this might be happening? Thanks for any help offered.

On W11 Enterprise IoT LTSC 2024DMM Games isn't launching any of the games, this shit sucks.
One of our endpoints at work was asking a user to update to 24H2 via Windows Update, but we don't have it that in MECM, and it's not available in our Microsoft Admin portal. What gives? Is it actually out or not?

>>101930260The two big "Roll-up Updates" cover most of that old stuff.
>>101927675Why would you use beta software like Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC? It's based on 24H2 that hasn't even released on the GAC (General Access Channel) and you are using the LTSC (Long Term Service Channel). Surely you see how retarded that decision is?
>>101930729i need separate updates for specific reasons
>>101926400I use both systems and no, each have their strengths. In a sane world we would move over the concept of being stuck in a single OS into the hardware hypervisor model, and design proper APIs to do hardware passthrough, it's 2024 not 1986, but is very hard to make Widevine and TPM to work under that model. Copyright lobbies and Tencent/EA manchildren ruined everything, once again.
>>101926400I'm a perfectionist and very OCD about my system, I like to keep things organized and to have as much control and stability as possible. Linux just doesn't offer that, I hate silent package manager installers, I hate not having the option to choose where installers go, I hate not having the option to update only one app instead of every single package on my system, I hate the concept of wine/proton and how forced you are to use it if you are into games, I hate the way linux filesystems work and how confusing navigating them is, I really dislike all the major DEs like KDE/GNOME due to their bugginess and instability, I can't stand having a new game bug out or not install properly immediatly, I do not have the patience to deal with linux's shit, if I was unemployed and single then maybe I would. I've just realized that I really love how windows works and any attempt at using macOS/chromeOS/linux just leaves me disappointed, none of them are windows and every time I use them I try to turn them into windows and can never succeed.

In reality both GNOME and KDE out of the box on popular distros like Ubuntu or Fedora take up as much space and use as many resources like RAM/CPU as Windows 10 or Windows 11 do.In reality linux always has to run shit through translation layers and nothing is optimized directly for it since it's a meme hobbyist OS, well its not even a fucking OS, it just has a bunch of meme random third party distros that are just random collections of packages/programs, so linux always performs worse than a debloated windows setup.
I'm on Win 10 Edu 21H1 and I wanted to update after the news about the new IPV6 exploit came out, but it looks like I'm shit out of luck, is that right?Can I install Enterprise without losing my data?

>>101931774The resources thing is also Windows caching as many things as it can to make shit faster when you have free memory because unused RAM is wasted RAMPeople piss and shit their pants because Windows uses 4GB of RAM but they don't mention that Windows will free up memory if some software needs it
>>101932353and windows memory management is a lot better than linuxon linux swap is slow as fuck, doesnt matter what you use, yes even swap on ZRAM

>>101931688Not only this specific benchmark is cherry picking, perfomance for everyday tasks depends on so many things that is hard to give an accurrate shot.Of course the average Linux distro has less processes running in the background, also the simpler filesystem helps to their case (most distros still default to ext4, a few more to btrfs but most don't), you would have to laid down the specific metrics you are going to monitor and baseline tweaks allowed for each side.
