Windows LTSC | The Best Version of Windows 10

This video goes over Windows LTSC. Licensing, Installation, and Features, or lack there of. This is the cleanest version of Windows and why it is often referred to as the best version of Windows.

Running LTSC for one Year now, playing games from steam and uplay without any issues. Light PowerShell usage - had no problem. Virtual machines with VirtualBox - had no Problem. This is the successor to Windows 7 for me.

4:24 dear microsoft: When pirating a product is more straighforward and less shady than actually buying it legally you've got a problem.

LTSC is what Pro should have been. I love LTSC, it’s clean, it’s solid, the only updates you get are the ones that are actually beneficial (security updates)

Amazingly, this LTSC version saved my Warzone performance. I've been struggling with low FPS issues playing Warzone for a long time now. Today, I decided to give it a go and MAN, it is smooth. I was using Ghost Spectre's Superlite version before trying this. Now, i'm using Windows 10 LTSC (1809) from 2018. It is the best Windows i've ever used, period.

I used to have Windows 10 Home. I have now installed Windows 10 LTSC. PC became faster and more productive. I'm happy with.

There are some things that I noticed after using both W10 Pro 22H2, Home 22H2 and Enterprise LTSC 21H2 for a couple of years was that the Pro and Home version both became sluggish after about a month of usage, but the same principles did not apply to the LTSC version. The smoothness is quite similar across all versions, though. The responsiveness, however, is much MUCH better in the LTSC version. Plus, the low resource consumption and the simplicity of it massively improved the overall experience, both in gaming and in casual use like watching YouTube and do office works. Moreover, no bloatware included! Nice!

Thank you for introducing this lovely version of OS to me. Been using this lightweight and fast windows 10 version since last year. I haven't faced a single bit of problem yet, even though as a professional graphic designer photoshop, illustrator, indesign, after effects and blender are always kept running. I cannot believe why people are still using windows pro when this thing exists. It took a long time to quit windows 7 (It will always be my favorite OS) as i couldn't find similar but updated alternative OS. Windows 10 LTSC is my second the most favorite operating system.

"Aah, it might not be good for gamers"! Such in-dept and detailed analysis is what the majority here were hoping for.

[poseidon]

If you want to to keep a computer running that can't upgrade to 11 after extended support ends for regular 10 versions and you don't want to try Linux. This would be your best option then.

Your shirt is just making me think of the meme with the kid standing behind himself with a gun lmao

I use ltsc for everyday usage and i love it. I am not a gamer but i use it for office...it is incredible fast and all my drivers work flowless. I had before windows 10 pro and the updates just ruin my life...bad updates broke my pc several times and sometimes just remaines stuck. Now i am happy and i recomand it. I bought a license code from ebay...just 5 $

This pirate scare is really BS, you can get a original pro image from MSFT and than use some small tools to convert it to Volume/KMS and activate it.



if you do or you don't is between you and your sense of morality.


Just know that if you do, then get the original images form MSFT and don't go searching the pirate bay for "pre activated" images, why take the risk if you can get the ISO's from the original source.

You should make a video on how to setup a good Windows 10 LTSC install, maybe after the new 2021 version gets released later this year.

A lot of people don't know what ltsc is so maybe a good explainer. It's like centos, older stable packages, really long support. Does not have feature updates. Etc. Maybe a good visual graph would be good.

[bradleysmith]

We use LTSC for machines configured as an "appliance." For example, an automation system that runs only a single program 24/7. We don't need (or want) new features.

[minhngoctran]

ltsc should be the base window version that ships with consumer laptops imo, who even want a bunch of mobile game pre installed anyway

[ronnierush]

Like you said Chris this is what Windows-10 should been as the normal paid version. Then have a FREE VERSION with the adverts/adware like you have in normal Windows-10 at the moment, this could be used for gaming and people who just like shopping :-)

About drivers, it's the first thing I always completely disable, having drivers installed from Microsoft update, as they're usually outdated, buggy and problematic. I remember getting a Nvidia driver shoved onto my system once constantly and when rebooting the screen wouldn't show. Removed it in safe mode, booted back in normal mode and guess what...the same driver was installed again, reboot no screen, Microsoft recommending and pushing drivers? No thanks!

[kevinsahm]

I always have used them and never had virus issues with pirate versions been using them since like 2005
