If you're really tired of this shit, then get LTSB.
- piinbinary 8y agoWhat's LTSB?

- gruez 8y agoI'm not sure how LTSB could have prevented this at all. Ironically, 1809 was a LTSB release, so if you were upgrading from 1607 LTSB (to get WSL working, for example), you would also be exposed to this bug.
- killaken2000 8y agoI just installed WSL on LTSC and it worked great. The MS docs explained it easily enough and provided the proper power shell commands.
- xaduha 8y agoWell at the moment LTSB isn't affected is it? So there you go, proof enough. In any case it's not just that, there are lots of other annoying stuff that I don't need in my life.
- gruez 8y ago>Well at the moment LTSB isn't affected is it? And you know that based on what? The lack of bug reports? The LTSB population is obviously going to be smaller than the general population, so the lack of reports of it happening on LTSB doesn’t really indicate anything. Besides, the task manager bugs introduced in 1809 is in ltsb 1809 AND server 2019, which makes me inclined to believe that all the windows editions come from the same branch anyways.
- xaduha 8y agoI don't expect it to have 0 bugs. But generally speaking less features means less bugs. And as I said it's not just about bugs.
- maxxxxx 8y agoWe downloaded the 2019 LTSC (1809) and a day later it was pulled. I suppose it has the same problems.
- kurtisc 8y agoFrom your friendly neighborhood enterprise B2B volume sales team? Or from an illegally shared copy of questionable integrity?
- xaduha 8y ago> questionable integrity? What's what integrity checks are for.
- kurtisc 8y agoMicrosoft aren't the ones supplying the tools to fake a licence, though.
- xaduha 8y agoThey are welcome to make it easier to obtain LTSB license. They are not interested in that obviously. Technically there's not much that is stopping me from using it in trial mode with a rearm up to 90 days, because I use it in a VFIO VM anyway. But you probably wouldn't like that either, would you?
