Is Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC safe for online banking?

>>108915806
nigga ATMs still run on XP

>>108915806
Anon it's not a special operating system, it's just 10 Enterprise with a different license, no third/first-party bloat and updates until late 2032. It's actually made for things like ATMs.

Just finished installing the new KB on 11 LTSC and I felt the improvement before I rebooted. Actions Center and Notifications are snappier, Explorer (that I don't even use) feels smoother, generally an improvement showing that K2 is in fact real and Microsoft gives a shit about making 11 better. Though they're yet to improve on my gripe with 11 which is that the keyboard layout selector has a laggy delay that it didn't have on 10.

>>108916933
Just imagine how good LTSC 2027 will be when it comes out if the K2-led fixes are already coming

>>108916993
Even now LTSC 2024 isn't that bad compared to LTSC 2021 from my day's worth of desktop experience after the switch. Really, it's all just UI being kinda ass and sluggish, and under the hood it's still a solid OS.

>>108916933
The new low latency boost does indeed work because my 9800X3D now hits 5.3ghz opening the start menu or action center.

>>108917320
Well I keep my i5-12400 at max core speed all the time, but yeah there is a jump in CPU usage whenever I open up the action center. Which is fine, the native rewrite will take some time and this is a fairly decent stop-gap that'll work well in tandem with the rewritten UI.

I also noticed that after switching to 11 it now parks my cores, which on one hand I wanted to disable, but now I realize that when it's not spreading everything over every thread, it sits at 4.2-4.4GHz rather than at constant 4GHz, so it's actually more beneficial to park the cores and let the scheduler handle it.

>>108917360
On my setup Windows likes to throw everything onto the first core from device interrupts to applications. I confirmed it with latencymon. What I did was use Microsoft Affinity Interrupt Tool to move the high DPC devices to other real cores and use task manager to tard wrangle programs to other cores.

>>108917416
>high DPC devices
Such as? I'd be interested in doing a similar adjustment to my system.

>>108917438
GPU, Network, High Polling Rate Mouse
Instead of all them fighting on the same thread or using slower hyper threads/e-cores, they have their own real cores to themselves.

Reposting:

I'll be moving to Windows 11 Pro soon, I have reached the point where I'm experiencing incompatibility issues with programs and hardware on 10 IoT LTSC, so I'd appreciate if you could give me a quick rundown. As far as I know, I only need to download the W11 .iso and flash a USB with Rufus and from there I only need to boot from the USB to begin the installation, but I just want to be sure about a few things:

>I read that new Rufus versions also help debloating W11. Is this correct? Or will I need to run other scripts to remove the usual bloat, Copilot and telemetry, along restoring features back to look like in W10?
>I only have one SSD. Will W11 replace the W10 one, or am I at risk of creating a new partition? As in, do I just need to proceed with the installation as usual, or is there another step I need to follow?

>>108917469
A good portion of stuff is gradual rollout only but if you want the low latency stuff now use vivetool.

vivetool /enable /id:60716524,61391826

>>108917588
I instantly used it, seems to be working but I honestly do not feel a difference, maybe I do not care enough about these things idk.
Gotta try on my older laptop to see if it actually feels better.

>>108917610
You can check CPU-Z to see it working. The CPU should be turboing as you open explorer.exe or start menu.

>>108917610
before it took like a good 20 seconds for my desktop to get ready on pc startup. now its like 8 seconds.

>>108917633
>>108917678
Seems like I fucked up something on the first try, now it works properly and yeah the diff is noticable, 'specially on startup.

I'd guess these preview update fixes are gonna be within the June cumulative update as well

is it possible to have different versions of win installed in a single device?
ex.:
my laptop came with win10 home that I upgraded to win11 home that I'd like to keep, but will also like to have win10 iot ltsc 2021 in a different nvme

>>108917809
just install it with both drives installed
it should just work and install an entry on the existing bootloader, but both installations will be called the same "Windows"
youll get a 25s blue ass screen with two options to pick, idk how to name the installations

if you mean to install it on the same drive i have no idea you'd have to shrink the existing partition and its a pain to do

>>108917809
>is it possible to have different versions of win installed in a single device?
yes

>>108917705
I used to get the user loading screen when starting up my computer but now it just skips straight to the desktop before my monitor finishes changing resolution. It's that fast.

>>108917549
install w11 education instead and wrangle windows with group policies
i don't understand the second one, you have a partition wizard during installation

So I'm guessing something like this is good for the GPU? It's also throwing me an error every time I select it but I don't think it's an issue.

The GitHub one doesn't throw me an exception and visualizes the choice better, GPU on the second core without HT. I placed the Ethernet adapter on core 3.

>>108918176
ideally you use something like autogpuaffinity to find out what core is best
https://github.com/valleyofdoom/AutoGpuAffinity
but you can also use latencymon to find out which core has the least dpc/isr spam and throw it on there. just make sure its a real core and not hyperthread.

>>108918205
>just make sure its a real core and not hyperthread
Yeah ik avoid the even "core" numbers, so with my HT'd 6-core the real cores are 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11.

>>108918211
yeah after you do your devices you reboot the pc and confirm with latencymon that its actually taking affect. for instance if you set gpu to core 1 then nvidia driver is doing all its activity there.

>>108915689
>pc with older nvidia gpu
that is a (You) problem and that doesn't make linux bad. should have bought a better gpu lmao. time to upgrade cuck.

hey, seems like windows updated, can i migrate from windows 10 now? i don't have a fast cpu, though. (ryzen 5 4500)

what's the best windows iot ltsc version?

>>108918405
i guess ill move when you can actually move the taskbar

>>108918239
Well AutoGpuAffinity fails to save csv's on me so guess I'll just need to check with LatencyMon manually, but I already see that Nvidia's kernel driver is hammering core 0.

>>108918413
if you have cpu without estrogen cores - Microsoft Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021
with - Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2024

>>108918413
Latest ones. 2021 for 10 and 2024 for 11.

>>108918393
It's whatever, specially since your CPU supports Windows 11 natively.
If you like the Windows 11 UI/Icons then 'upgrade', if not, stay on 10, it's whatever, it would run generally the same.

Security staff at work want to know devices we use for ""security"". I'm part of IT R&D and WFH all the time using my own devices which they might not approve (it's not microslop branded) but I don't want to use their shitty peripherals. Can they even know what I'm using if there's no drivers and it goes through a chink USB switch? Like I can't even see it on my own PC. Keep in mind they're pretty incompetent overall and generally don't know what they're doing or why.

Has windows fucked up something with volume control? My new w10 enterprise ltsc on 100% volume is barely on the level of 30% of my old w10home

i appreciate kid feet as much as the next guy but where Sophie?

Every time I've used windows every program I install places itself as a startup program. Then it takes 80 years to start up and once it does it bluescreens to shit. The file manager takes ages to work especially for file searches (yes, even on windows 7!). Every program has its own auto updater (instead of just updating when I tell it to) and every once in a while it changes where every button is and randomly replaces menus. 7 - 8 - 10 - 11 and every time I had to relearn the OS. Why did they get rid of the control panel? I tried it again just for gayming, because I saw I could install a windows 7 skin (so everything would be exactly where I remember), but it bluescreened constantly after a month of usage (I only installed a few games and art programs), and then I got laughed at when I tried for support. Now I see windows users with old versions of the OS, but those don't work on my laptop, and probably won't do well for my gayming. I want to use windows again, I really miss it's sane app installation, file management, and I hate trannies infesting my OS, but I cannot find a version that doesn't bluescreen after months or update constantly with new unwanted features.

So, I must ask, what is the absolutely sanest version of windows that works on my new hardware, that doesn't constantly spy on me and never has to update with new features, and what programs will stay working on it without slowing down the startup. I've tried debloater scripts but the system goes to shit after updates. I tried "reuinion 7" but that bluescreened. Windows 10 iot LTSC doesn't work with my games (missing loads of DLLs for random mods and shit), and windows 11 has so many fucking ai features and didn't let me even move the taskbar. I actually just want windows vista/7 with new programs, how hard can that be? Should I just buy compatible hardware? Are there open source firewall/network monitoring tools to use? I just want to escape the linux trannies.

>>108924636
It was something for "rock band" controllers. I know, oddly specific and gay stuff, but it works whenever the "Xbox game bar" is installed. However, whenever the "Xbox game bar" is installed, the "home" button on any controller opens the "game bar", but then ALSO opens steam if it's installed, when in reality I shouldn't have to deal with anything Xbox because I don't own an Xbox. The game bar takes away focus from whatever app I'm using too. The developer of the windows version of the program has said he won't support debloated installs of windows missing the Xbox app, because it ships with libraries for incredibly specific Xbox branded controllers (such as the Xbox branded riffmaster) and without it he cannot offer support.

I wanted to install the Xbox game bar, but I had no clue how, and I'm pretty sure I would've had to use Microsoft's shitty "windows store" (the same program that wants to sell gimp premium last I checked) which I am also pretty sure wasn't on windows 10 iot LTSC. So even if I wanted to use the crappy "Xbox game bar" and just disable it, I can't. Needless to say this shit just works on windows 10 with the game bar installed, except for the fact I have never been able to successfully disable the Xbox game bar fully and it always manages to come crawling back after some update.

Explain to me like a I'm a goddamn retard why it shows "% Utilization 100%" all the time. What is the point of this static text, besides being misleading?

>>108924763
Oh, and on Linux the controller just works by downloading some HID profile that magically makes every guitar hero controller under the sun work perfectly, no matter what console or band. I have no clue how an officially licensed Xbox controller works better on Linux than on windows.

>>108924771
"% utilization" is the name of the graph, the "100" is to say that when the line reaches the top of the graph it is at "100% utilization" and when the line is at the bottom it is at "0% utilization". The "60 seconds" and "0" at the bottom are complementary to this.

>>108924786
Wow it actually makes sense now. I still think they could've centered that "Utilization" text or something, but that probably needs more stuff to be moved around to look right.

I honestly did know about these things but I unfairly assumed microsoft wouldn't distribute the Xbox game bar through anything except the official Microsoft store, although even at the time I didn't know how to use winget and couldn't find an official package list website directly from microsoft, so I never even tried to use it once.

Simple question but reading about how to fix this kind of thing online always ends up resulting in me running into a huge hassle for anything windows related and I can't be bothered lest I sour my day. Why is windows suddenly not stretching images to fit the size of my monitor when I set images as a desktop background and how do I fix this?

>>108927876
Well, not "stretch", but it would normally zoom into the images to fit them, and now it's not doing this.

>>108927876
>>108927949
Nevermind was pretty easy.
Photos App > Settings > Zoom to fit in window
That used to be the default but windows randomly decided to change this for me because why wouldn't they.

I know it's been said before but you really should try helium. I doubt it will be abandoned since the creator is getting over 200$ a week to maintain it. It comes with manifest v2 support and many other patches from other chromium based browsers. Ive been using it since it's release without issues.

I’ve tried repair in place, creation tool repair, update repair, everything.

I’m going to blow my head off with a shotgun soon anyway not sure why I’m stressing.

>>108933585
Try disabling memory integrity and kernel DMA protection (if it's there) in Windows Security and restarting, which could fix up PCI errors from those virtualized security things taking space/lanes. Could also be an issue with the generic 11 virtual PCI driver as well.
