Has anyone used this modded windows OS?

I’ve seen quite a few videos on youtube of it performing waaay better than normal windows & using less resources than even tiny10/11 windows.

I’ve seen quite a few people say they’ve used it for years with no issues or accounts stolen, but then I’ve also seen a few people claim that their version had malware on it- however I’ve also found that apparently there’s fake sites with malware infested versions of it floating around & apparently there’s versions of it on piracy sites that come pre-loaded with a bunch of pirated games, so perhaps those are where those malware reports are coming from.

    Yeah, I can give you a download link. PM me on Monday (tomorrow), I have the ISO’s at work, not home.

    You can’t purchase a key, LTSB/LTSC editions are meant for coprosations only. You’d have to be a private entity in order to buy a license and they’re through the roof expensive. Just use KMS38 on the install, it’ll activate it permanently (till 2038, but that’s almost permanently, considering LTSC 2019 is supported till 2029).

    Ever since 10 came out, corps and enterprises didn’t like the point release model because that often breaks things. They wanted something feature fixed that did the job, like Win7 was. MS enduldged this wish (seing as how corps and ents are one of their biggest customers regarding Windows) and made Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 (Long Term Service Branch). In 2019, they released Win 10 LTSC 2019 (changed the acronym to Long Term Service Channel). Both LTSB 2016 and LTSC 2019 have a 10 year support cycle - they get security fixes and crucial updates in the next 10 years. In 2021, Win10 LTSC 2021 was released, but the support cycles was reduced to only 5 years (for this and other future LTSC releases), meaning both LTSB 2016 and 2019 currently have a higher life span than LTSC 2021.

    The LTSC releases are not that different from regular Windows releases. They’re basically like Windows 7 releases, fixed in features. The other big plus is that they come with no apps and no way to actually install apps whatsoever (MS store missing completely, corps don’t actually need that, they need for the installs to do one, two jobs perfectly, and that’s it). They have a higher price tag because they’re basically what server versions of Windows look like (and they coniside with the server releases as well), but have no server manager and are marked as workstations.

    Simply put, you get a workstation OS with no apps, frozen in time, only security updates, nothing more. It was how their previous release model used to look like, before Windows 10, which is why LTSC releases are appealing to certain types of crowds, including myself (all my Windows installs sre LTSC).
