The loophole for years has been not being connected to the internet, they're getting rid of that.
Buying LTSC licenses as an individual is not particularly easy or cheap.
- Melatonic 5y agoMight be a good time to take some affordable evening classes at your local community college wink wink nudge nudge
- fortyseven 5y agoWhat a shitty thing to say to someone.
- cpsns 5y agoWhat? He's suggesting getting a student license for Windows/MS Products.
- HWR_14 5y agoThey meant to qualify for educational pricing and discounts, not to improve their skills.
- gjvc 5y agoI'd love to do some electrician qualifications at the local community college.
- iqanq 5y agoOoops, virtue signalling gone wrong here.
- idiotsecant 5y agoWhat is the word for complaining about virtue signalling as a way of virtue signalling?
- SSLy 5y agoIs so meta, even this acronym.
- gruez 5y agoI don't think microsoft ever gave away LTSC licenses for students. Education/Enterprise maybe, but not LTSC.
- easton 5y agoThey definitely did at one point, I still have a LTSC key from before my school decided to be too lazy to renew Azure Dev Tools for Teaching (Imagine). IIRC the keys were per edition, so a 2016 key wouldn't apply to the newest LTSC release.
- Melatonic 5y agoI believe you just use a regular edu or enterprise key and just choose LTSC when you create your install media? Been a bit though
- iqanq 5y agoNo but you can pirate it.
- morrbo 5y agoAnother annoying thing about this wrt them discouraging it, you need a Microsoft professional/enterprise account (I forget what they call it) to see the sha256 hashes, which they used to make publicly available until a few years ago
- KindOne 5y agoYou can buy a LTSC license for a single computer. https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2167558-explicit-instructions-for-purchasing-a-windows-10-ltsc-license https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/2167558-explicit-inst...
