If my "valid", purchased, key was not working, I would not be installing W11 Home instead !!! I'd be on the phone, to MS.

If banks decide to use LTSC/IOT on staff workstations, instead of Windows 11 pro reliability roulette, with their huge Microsoft license budgets, is anyone gonna tell them no, you can't do that !? I think not..:geek:

You can download the 90 day evaluation version from MS, for free. Microsoft "provides" the means, to "legally", re-activate the evaluation version, another 2-3x times. After this process, the software actually states "licensed", as opposed to some of the uninformed posts, from the pitch...

"Highly stripped down and minimalist" package support, tells you, this is not worth bothering with. As mentioned previously, Linux on bare metal, on same network, and accessible from Windows box, is having a most unreasonably large slice of cake, brought to your table, and eating it, with...

Not a milestone, in any sense, really, WSL has been running various Linux for a long time. https://www.zdnet.com/article/microsoft-releases-its-first-server-linux-distribution-azure-linux-4-0/ So nothing to see here. You want a proper Linux experience, install a fully fledged distro, on...

I guess a "highly stable, secure, debloated operating system", with "enhanced performance", is just not for some.

Currently, Win 11 2024 IOT LTSC Enterprise, is suffice, for my Win 11 needs.

RHEL 10.1, is where I do all of my heavy lifting, at Home. Does "Win 11 Pro For Workstations", install as default, with AI slop enabled ?

Win 11 2024 IOT LTSC Enterprise has AI/Copilot settings in Registry/Policies, but they are all unused, which apparently means disabled.

My "Win 11 2024 IOT LTSC Enterprise" machine, dual boots with RHEL 10.1. RHEL install is my home lab, where I mess with Docker, Podman, Splunk, etc, using containers, so Zeon V4 is bang per buck champion. As regards, to Windows 11, it's just for running Office and WFH, so I've moved to a...

Agreed... But good grief.. I'm actually an IT/Linux professional. So, no one on a Windows 11 Forum, will be dictating to me, which version of OS, I choose to use.

Try reading above again, it's not the evaluation product. (y) And hey, if you don't agree with people using the version of Windows they prefer, on their own hardware, feel free to stay away, and not rant on this thread..
