> LTSC really is the way to go for a stable windows experience, unfortunately there's no legal way for consumers to get licenses without a much larger investment than what a home or pro license costs.

LTSC can be purchased legally by anyone for around $300: https://tinyapps.org/blog/201811300700_windows_10_ltsc.html

Nice. That cuts it in half from what I'd expect to pay.

...and if you pirate, you might as well go the whole hog and get the Server edition, which could now be considered to be the closest you can get to a non-hostile, classic Windows experience.

Any word of when is a new version of LTSC supposed to come? I bought a very new laptop that just launched last year. The windows version out of box was I believe 1909. I haven’t yet tried running LTSC on it yet but worried about drivers or other issues. My CPU in the laptop was released in March 2020 and 1809 was released in 2018. I didn’t think it was too good of an idea because of that, even though prior I always ran LTSC and would love to go back if I didn’t have to worry about too new of hardware messing with it.

The CPU support list is here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/min...

Next LTSC release should be late next year apparently.

I have Ryzen 9 4900HS.

according to that link, support for Ryzen 9 4xxx began in build 2004. It says even build 1909 doesn’t have support for Ryzen 9 4xxx only Ryzen 3/5/7 3xxx. Confusing because 1909 definitely worked ok since my laptop came with it and ran okay.

Correction: I meant to say Tron Script.

That sounds good!

How do I do this? What's transcript?

That's a dang auto correction!
