binhex Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Hi guys, only found out about this a week ago, gave it a spin at work and its pretty good, its basically windows 10 without all the BS, im sure it runs faster than win 10 creators edition, and with no mega large updates and 10 year support im seriously considering running this as a vm on unraid, for anybody who is saying 'LTSB whaa?' :-) https://www.howtogeek.com/273824/windows-10-without-the-cruft-windows-10-ltsb-explained/ Quote Link to comment
garycase Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Looks interesting. I'm running a VM of Win 10 Enterprise ... but not the LTSB version. Guess I'll have to give it a try as well. Quote Link to comment
garycase Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Not sure if it's true or not, but a couple forums I browsed indicate that the LTSB trial can only be re-armed one time ... i.e. a total of 180 days. Don't know if it actually stops functioning, or if that just means you'll have to put up with "nag" screens r.e. it being unactivated. Still an interesting thing to try -- I'm setting up a VM with it [ guess I'll know in 91 days what happens when the trial expires ] Quote Link to comment
