[@KRYST4LCLR]

Hi Brian, just for correction, it's Windows 11 iot Enterprise not LoT, the IoT stands for Internet of Things. Great video as always. :)

[@bigbigfizzi]

I kinda prefer LoT, Linternet of Things. Sounds snazzier.

[@Britec09]

That is correct, slip of the tongue, knew someone would spot it 😂 but people get the general idea

[@Robert-sl7jo]

Except it's Microsoft which means it can't be trusted. I bought a new Dell PC Windows 11 Pro 23H2 in February and it's been a big headache. Blue screens, external hard drive "Schizophrenia", bugs, bloat, and a surprise 24H2 update. I just installed Windows 10 the other day and it's been peace and quiet since. Being on Microsoft today is like being on the Titanic.

[@KRYST4LCLR]

[@Robert-sl7jo]

@@bigbigfizzi I checked the Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC site. Look at it and notice the blackmail about the warning of "black screens". Microsoft is not the company of the future; its time has come in my opinion. They ensured tha by saying Windows 10 was the last version then introduced bug-filled Windows 11. The CEO of Microsoft should run for politics.

[@CesareVesdani]

Long Term Support for Windows 10 and Windows 11 is the very best you can get to extend Windows Updates much further.

[@davidtowsey9047]

Just installed in a virtual machine and I must say I'm impressed. Everything I need is there but what I don't want has been taken out. Thanks.

[@Savitarax]

Process Explorer LTSC vs Home will show how much literal cpu cycles are taken up by the OS. If LTSC has a massive discrepancy it’s possible a lot of attention to background hogging was heavily optimized in LTSC. Definitely worth looking into.

[@MrGamelover23]

It turns out none of this actually makes a difference in performance. Modern hardware and operating systems know how to run processes without the bloat actually getting in the way. It's why on something like the ROG ally, the difference between stock windows and tiny 11 is like 5% at best. That being said, this is the superior version of Windows.

[@juanfigueroa4989]

How was the use of resources like ram and cpu? Did it less or the same as a regular Windows 11 version?

[@JasonWestaway]

Hi Brian, yes something I would definitely use. Looks lightweight, which is really nice. Thanks for the video. Take care

[@Britec09]

You're welcome

[@bmc2266]

For audio production, that is the Windows version I should have been looking for! I am glad I learned to run many tweaks, but it is time consuming even if I like that but it is keeping me away from mixing. Thanks for pointing it out! I am saving to build a new desktop, I will run this version! I do not have the time to learn linus and check or experiment plug-in compatibility and all of that for now. It would be nice to see how latencymon report interupts vs win 11 pro if you have the time! Have a good one!!✌️

[@musicalneptunian]

Yes, you do need a quiet environment - no phone homes, stupid tiles etc - for professional audio or vfx production. That's why most big VFX studios do their final stages in a Linux box. In theory I would use this Windows version. But after 5 years as an audio power user I am riding Linux all the way. I haven't used pipewire yet and that will be cool!

[@bmc2266]

@@musicalneptunian Once I am done building my next Workstation, I will probably dual boot Linux on my Laptop to familiarize with it. If I need to be effective/productive, I can still quickly switch to an OS i know well. Do you have any quick tips or point out things I should check regarding Linux for audio work? Have a good one!!

Hmm Bria as you say this should have been available a very long time ago. Now I am just wondering what machines can this OS be loaded on for example some of those that have been stopped via unsupported hardware and I know you said about TPM but what about The CPU for example? Also, just who can get this OS and just how much is it going to cost?? Because if it can be used on older machines then I have a couple of really good computers that I can run it on.

You can't just upgrade from a non LTSC into an LTSC windows they are different. What you can do is a fresh install.

[@WillPlaysGames1993]

if only they would let everyone have a version like this and give us back windows 7 or at least 10 start menu/task bar or give us small taskbar icons/clear task bar plus get rid of all the junk that bloats up windows 11 so we can have better performance in games/video editing/etc actually this is what windows 11 pro should be since its supposed to be for PROFESSIONALS AND BUSINESS

[@KRYST4LCLR]

I couldn't agree more.

[@Jakiyyyyy]

This is how any Windows version should be in general. No one actually uses those bloats anyway. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@xxundeadgoddessxx]

Not that hard to get ahold of. You can actually get ahold of these versions pretty easily on the MAS website

[@KRYST4LCLR]

@@xxundeadgoddessxx what's the website called?

[@MrGamelover23]

Even on something like a handheld PC, the difference in performance will be marginal at best. It turns out both the operating system and modern hardware are actually built specifically to prevent bloat from getting in the way of performance. Now if you're stuck on old hardware, then you'll probably get a massive performance gain, but any modern system won't actually gain any measurable difference in performance.

[@Sid-Cannon]

Just a quick question Brian if you don't mind, what's the difference between turning stuff off in the privacy settings and doing it via group policy? Is the end result the same?

[@Britec09]

Stops them coming back on for one.

[@dosluke]

you can turn those settings off per user, but in general, group policy forces those options to be set according to the policy, for all users, and they cannot be changed outside of group policy. Only Admins can change the policies, so its useful for admins of organizations to set the policy for all users by default, without much risk of bypassing it.

[@samirfa5300]

Thanks for the video! Can you please do some quick benchmarks compared to the normal Windows 11? I am really curious if you get better FPS (0.1% and 1% lows) in games. Thank you in advance! I think many people are curious about this.

There are still some telemetry left in but it is way less than the Home & Pro edition, and you can easily disable it via Group Policy (Windows actually respects a "Disable" state set on Enterprise edition from what I heard) or O&O ShutUp10++ (despite the "10" in the name, it works on Windows 11 just fine) & Winaero Tweaker.

[@dalenewton9697]

@@Prizm44 I think you have misunderstood the context/question. To clarify, I'm asking about RAM at *startup* (I've edited the question to make this more clear). Also, worth pointing out that RAM allocation in Windows is not as simple as just what gets most 'used' most often (beyond the sense of 'used' as in just sitting there in memory). Some of the bloat that starts automatically in a standard Windows install never gets used, but gets started anyway. That's a major part of why users seek lean versions like this.

Installed this on a VirtualBox . Wasn't as easy as normal windows. LTSC wouldn't install until I upgraded VirtualBox to the latest version.

Generally speaking, in the last Windows Enterprise LTSC releases e.g 2019 & 2021, these Edition will only receive "Security Updates" and no feature updates. This is to ensure that said device with said edition installed, is fully operation when being used by businesses/industries.

There are two possible legitimate outcomes when using an evaluation license for Windows OS's. 1st being, you can rearm the license upto 3times or 2nd, you can just reinstall every 90days, a bit inconvenient, however if you are unable to obtain a legit license key then, this is the last resort in resetting the 90days back.

I read from somewhere that after 90 days system starts to shut itself down so that seems a bit annoying. In order to acquire a license you must have like 10 Windows 10 Pro licences or something like businesses do so it doesn't sound very cheap for individuals.

[@bryom_xd1870]

No

[@flashbak01]

I just tried this version tonight and liked it however, I wanted to be able to make adjustments to Windows Security -> Virus and threat protection. However, when I clicked on it it said it was missing a windowsdefender app that needed to be installed. I tried doing that but couldn't get it working. Any ideas as to how to activate that feature?

[@Jon717]

You need the full version. Evaluation versions are meant for testing purposes, not actual use.

[@kablammy7]

you don't activate it like other OS - you buy license for products you produce which use it - if you are not a vendor you don't get it .

[@rchltmedia]

people, rejoice. windows 11 ltsc has been landed, successfully.

[@PiDsPagePrototypes]

Looks like the ideal version of the OS to install if building a PC that you want all of it's resources available to the applications you're building it for. This version would be so much faster when running vMix, OBS, DaVinci Resolve, any 3D engineering modeller or similar for Film n TV.

that's what i wanted, low ram, low cpu usage, and all stuff i wanted is less worrying impacting performance than on a normal windows installation, thanks to microsoft

[@anthonyfmoss]

Bri - just checking something.. Looking at some comments below, do we need a special licence for this, or can we buy one from CDkey sales? Say an ordinary Windows 11 pro key/ Will that work on this LTSC version? If so, then great!

[@Britec09]

Special licence

[@teliakos]

Can i use it as daily driver.also games?

[@KRYST4LCLR]

Yes, if your games require Microsoft Store, you can run a simple command in command prompt as admin -> WSReset.exe -i upon entering this command wait a few moments and the Microsoft Store should appear in your start menu. hope this helps you out.

[@ImplicitFlower]

Yes, I've been gaming on 11 LTSC for the last 3 or so days. no issues.

[@HuzaBird0.2]

​@@KRYST4LCLRyou don't need ms store for games you can install stuff all bi old way.

[@HuzaBird0.2]

Java mc

[@HuzaBird0.2]

And steam.

[@nearchik23231]

Hi Brian, can i get it without USB flash?

[@heirtothethrone000]

I would most definitely use this. What's the activation cost?

[@jpquinn4550]

How much does it cost after 90 days? And can I play games on this version of windows? Buy games I mean things like Forza Horizon 5 & FC24 & Control & Doom Eternal NBA 2K 24?

[@Rood67]

Now I just need to get this for Windows 10. And I'll just run a VM for Linux for things I need updated security for. For me, Micro$oft Recall is a recall for returning to 10 and dumping 11 regardless of bloat free option.

[@jluich]

do we know enough of LTSC 11 to construct our own version of it ? build guides ?
