I've tried the windows 11 LTSC on thinkpad x230. LTSC is supposed to be slimmer, but even on that version explorer window takes 3.5 sec to open and slightly less on consecutive runs (cache) but you can see how the window is drawn every single fucking time. Peak bloat.

Try disabling secure boot and other secure on boot features, they may block your disk from change before startup.

I'm the guy who asked about 24H2 not being officially available for download anymore.

Might as well come clean about why I'm making a big deal out of it.

I run a repair shop and recently got the idea to have "backups" of recovery files to make recreating the recovery partition a bit easier. I already had the ones for 25H2

Since then, I found a link to 24H2 using Massgrave as a jumping point. I then ran hash checks and found 24H2's recovery file was indeed different from 25H2

I've got the extended updates, kikerosoft just seems to be aggressively trying to get me to upgrade. Might be an issue with the first post-support security patch not being out yet, I guess we'll see soon, but if I'm still encountering this problem in a week I'll just try disabling notifications regarding updates like you mentioned. My main worry really is that next time I go to update, even without being prompted, it will forcibly upgrade me to 11 without my say-so. It's utterly baffling that they're trying their damnedest to torpedo any continued support for any past versions despite 11 still barely accounting for half of their market share.

about 50/50 the bsod dump says either ntfs.sys or tcpip.sys caused it. although when i installed arch i did change the logical sector size of my drive (WD SN850X). i didn't read the fine print that said that some WD drives have issues with 4K sectors but while I was using linux i didn't have any noticeable problems. that's about the only thing i have changed from stock with my hardware besides XMP but i have already disabled that.

I have two test VMs: one with regular Win10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 21H2 and a clone of it with the 22H2 enablement package.

Both of them showed "Your version of Windows has reached the end of support" message priorly. This is listed as fixed in today's KB5068781. (And might have been caused by having telemetry servers blocked according to the internet).
>[Update (known issue)] Fixed: After installing the October 14, 2025 Windows update (KB5066791), the message, "Your version of Windows has reached the end of support", might incorrectly display in the Windows Update Settings page. To view the page, click Start > Settings > Windows Update.
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/november-11-2025-kb5068781-os-builds-19044-6575-and-19045-6575-7fe13257-9079-49af-9369-e0e6242701dd

For the regular 21H2 VM today's KB5068781 update installed normally regardless of the "end of support" notice and after a reboot all is fine: latest OS build 19044.6575, no more messages about end of support.

22H2 enabled VM however does not receive today's KB5068781 at all. There is a way to remove the "Your version of Windows has reached the end of support" notice by adding ESODATESTRING in UsoSettings.json, but they are different things, the graphical message and the actual update support.
The build stays as October's 19045.6456, for ESU updated 22H2 build is 19045.6575 according to the MS update page.

So it does seem 22H2 enablement does not work for the long term updates of Win10 IoT Enterprise LTSC, naturally at least.

I continued the experiment and tried to enable ESU updates with MAS for the 22H2, but it fails with "IoTEnterpriseS LTSC already has longer support, ESU is not applicable". Manually installing ESU updates might work, but it's still different than what IoT LTSC updates would be.

Depends on what you want to disable. You don't need more.
>>
>>107177247
You may recieve KB5071959 as it is marked as a security update for 22H2 devices not part of ESU (and a regular OOB update to ESU) but there's a very good chance that your FrankenDebian won't get all (or even any) of the updates because 22H2 will make the LTSC updates incompatible as they are for a lower build number and you're also not a part of ESU so the extended 22H2 updates won't be offered.

When 10 Enterprise can just get the ESU enabled and work until 2028, it's basically like LTSC 2021 anyway.

That is an IE 11 error because it doesn't support the URL.SearchParams property. Looks like something is mistakenly trying to use MSHTML instead of WebView2, I would expect uninstalling the IE 11 feature to fix it.

ESU exists. If you're in Europe you get a single year of consumer ESU for free and you don't need to do anything. Outside of Europe you need to either pay 30 dollars or use 1000 MS funny money while also using an MS account system wide to get access to this one year of ESU. Or you can just use MAS's TSforge module to activate the three ESU licenses that give three years of commercial ESU, which just went through today and work perfectly.
>>
>>107181246

radio waves bounce around, even moving a piece of furniture can interfere. or maybe the dongle is just crapping itself, i dunno. if a cheap cable fixes it that would be great.

is ESU Extended Security Support or Extended Services Support? Home and in the US btw. I did sign up for the Security support but defender was not affected by this update AFAIK?
>>
>>107180464
Try uninstalling IE 11 either through DISM or "Turn Windows Features On and Off"
>>
>>107181643
Extended security updates. And if you've signed up and are using an MS account you got the updates.

Am stupid. Can someone explain what up with the 22H2 thing and why it's causing some people problems with the ESU? I've got 22H2 and activated ESU via tsforge and I think it's all working fine for me with today's update.
>>
>>107181846
Yeah it's weird how long it can sometimes take. Always makes it in the end though.
>>
>>107181870
This is stemming from people that used that 22H2 enablement package on IoT LTSC 2021. It's not a "real" version of Windows so cumulative updates aren't listed for it. Seems that if you actually want updates on IoT LTSC 2021 you need to stay on 21H2, though you can get 22H2 updates if you just use GAC 10 with the ESU updates enabled.

is this true?
i tried windows 11 years ago on an unsupported laptop and it was slower than 10 but it was fine
then i tried the leaked iot ltsc iso and it ran like shit
could iot ltsc be the problem?
>>
>>107182204
I don't see that many people complain about IoT LTSC 2024. Anon might just be having a self contained bad time on his hardware? Dunno.
>>
So to make it simple, pic related for my 22H2 Win10:

I got the security update which should be the only thing that matters, right? What the hell is feature update anyway? I just want a reasonably secure system.

I did not get any other update. But reading this thread you'd think that Enterprise 22 builds are somehow unsafe yet they also get security updates. Also the message is gone.

So those on 21 who did something to go to 22 did not get what I showed in attached pic?

Did I miss anything? If I wanted to bother with endless tinkering with OS I'd just use Linux.
>>
>>107181603
Update for interested parties: it didn't work
I'm leaning towards the dongle crapping out
Other new factors: Amazon Fire TV stick thing employed in household; new neighbour - could either of those be impeding my internet?
>>

22h2 ltsc users can apparently manually apply these

Answer my question you slimy fuck
>>
>>107182893
Yes anon the cumulative update includes the security updates. The "unsafe" 22H2 installs are the ones that used the enablement package on their IoT LTSC 2021 installs, read slower.
Every normal 22H2 GAC 10 install that had TSforge's ESU unlocker ran on it gets the ESU cumulative updates fine.

Hell the only new "feature" that was in the November 2025 update was a fix to the bug that made it say that your install was EoL. Just security fixes otherwise.
Seems like how it's going to be for the foreseeable future now. 10 is the new 7.
>>
>>107183009
technically there's still mainstream support until jan 2027 for (iot) ltsc
>>
>>107183028
I mean it's the same with LTSC now too. Now that additional feature updates being included in cumulative ones in 10 isn't happening anymore, 10 as a whole will be solid as fuck and only get security focused cumulative updates for 3+ years.
>>
>>107177891
you mean regular enterprise or iot?
>>
>>107183121
GAC means normal non-LTSC 10.
>>
>>107183127
regular iot (non ltsc) also gets updates through gac, no? that's why I'm asking enterprise or iot enterprise (non ltsc)
>>
>>107183164
No, LTSC/IoT LTSC get updates through the LTSC branch, which as of now also includes the updates that are now given to GAC 10 through ESU.
>>
If Windows dropped the forced online account and AI bullshit I'd go back immediately.
>>
>>107183635
sounds like all you need is windows 11 iot ltsc
>>
>>107183635
They won't drop both of that for the forseeable future but both are easily disabled. The account via installing the Enterprise variant/using Rufus to make your boot USB and the AI shit with some registry edits and feature disabling.

Fuck it I give up at this point. I'll move over to Linux and keep my old shitbox dualbooted in case I ever need anything windows-only again.
This fucking sucks.

Literally just disable Recall with DISM or Windows Features. It's not hard.

I have no more time to bother fighting after each and every update with an OS that's clearly declining.

Alright drama queen, go use Linux or something.

kind of a dumb question but should I use tsforge or switch to the pro version to get ESU's?
I got 10 education from my uni and it doesn't get updates
>>
>>107183848
Activate ESU on your Education install.
>>
>>107183121
I mean regular Enterprise but GAC IoT Enterprise has the same life cycle. You will have to check for group policy support though, IoT editions don't get the as many options as the non-IoT variants and the docs aren't always clear in regards to them.
>https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows-11-iot-enterprise

>>107183173
Anon you do realise that there is an IoT Enterprise edition part of the GAC channel not LTSC?
>which as of now also includes the updates that are now given to GAC 10 through ESU
They are still separate channels but 10 or 11 GAC Enterprise is still the best edition and I used to be a hardcore LTSCfag.
>>
>>107183907
The ESU updates pretty much make normal GAC 10 Enterprise just as good as LTSC now, now we know MAS's ESU unlocker works flawlessly.

i dont know if i should install office 365 or go with an older fixed version
>>
>>107184294
You can really use either thanks to Ohook, but if you want to more easily choose what exact modules of Office you want to use then use the Office Deployment Tool method and use 365 Apps for Enterprise or Office LTSC.
>>
>>107184309
do you recommend 365 or LTSC?
>>
>>107184350
LTSC because I don't need the entire suite.

This is a very general question. I am running Windows 10 on a high end PC. If I update to windows 11, will my history in Firefox be affected (i.e, saved log ins)? I also have active torrents in qbittorrent (music tracker), would they be wiped out? Would I have to re-add all the torrents? Would most the applications I have simply be there and not have to be reinstalled

Basically, if I update to Windows 11, is it normally a seamless update in which I can resume normal use after upgrade?
>>
>>107185559
in theory yes, the only stuff that gets modified are Windows files, in practice there could be little annoyances but these days upgrading is not as unpredictable as it used to be, specially from 10 to 11 because they're very similar. Of course clean install is still the recommended way
>>
>>107185831
also, if you have the possibility, you should make a backup of your current install with macrium or clonezilla, just to be able to go back in case something doesn't work
>>
>>107185831
>>107185856
>Of course clean install is still the recommended way

Thanks, but man, I just don't have the time for bringing my pc back up to my preferred settings. I may just do the basic upgrade. Also, I'd do the clone, but my main SSD is 4tb. Is it wrong to just simply want shit to work?
