Only if I need to get old emails off that Gmail shit.
Just doing the lords work and spreading the news of W11 IoT Enterprise LTSC. It only has Defender and Edge; no Xbox, App Store, Copilot, nor Recall, or any other bloat. Perfect for gaming. Don't waste your time looking for it on sites like massgravedotdev.
Except it's not perfect for gaming. If you happen to have titles purchased through the Xbox/MS storefronts, you won't be able to play them. The version of windows you speak of lacks three critical system packages that allow UWP based games to work. Xbox Identity Provider, TCUI, and speech to text (some games rely on that for accessibility). If you file any bug report or ask for support from the development, they'll discard your ticket when they look at logs (unsupported OS). You also gimp yourself on feature sets.
You can install all the M$ Store and Xbox apps. Afterwards the XBox app will tell you all the other apps missing and a 1 click button to install each. It's just a nice clean blank slate to start with. It doesn't even have .net or vcredist installed.
What missing feature sets?
Edit: I myself install 2 needed dependencies to get Winget running after a fresh install. One has to do with UWP.
And if you have lots of windows machines at home, running enterprise for whatever reason, dont look up vlmcsd and definitely dont look up the kms srv records to put on your home domain
Microshit and goo gle? Let them fight! Two of the most harmful companies...
Who do you think gets hurt if these guys fight?
Them, and its beneficial to the IT world
Big yawn
Microsoft is so... Old people stuff
The only Windows people I know are the Java developers at my workplace and it shows. Containerization and Linux/UNIX conventions are definitely not followed and everything’s a clusterfuck with those guys.
Windows in general is just fucking hostile to use. Everything they do now just seems like they are spitting in your face and laughing at you.
Fr, i remember windows taking longer to setup,Some Linux Distros only rlly had issues with secureboot(I turn on secure boot so windows doesn't freak out) and everything was ready.
