The writing is on the wall–I suspect the next Windows OS will be a subscription service. Gather your ISOs while ye may.

    Get LTSC and run the MS scripts to permanently license it.

    I’ll drop links in a bit - on phone atm.

      I have LTSC 2021 officially (MSDN) and I have to say I’m not very impressed. You still can’t turn off the telemetry crap. There is still a windows store. There’s a bit less bundled scamware but beside that it’s a bit overrated IMO.
