Windows 11 LTSC still has the old school notepad.exe (and calc.exe) instead of this UWP abomination. Also: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability

- embedding-shape 7mo agoIs LTSC still impossible to get as someone who doesn't want to run cracked software or "license unlockers" on the same machine they do their banking on? I never found a way of buying it that didn't involve having to survive an interrogation by a sales team.

- gigel82 7mo agoIt is unfortunately. I have access to a MSDN Subscription (or VS Essentials or whatever it's called nowadays) that comes with some "test" licenses. Let's just say I haven't concluded my testing yet, it's ongoing :)
- cyberax 7mo agoYou can get LTSC. It's a bit of a quest, but it's possible. You need to buy 5 regular Windows licenses and then you'll be able to unlock the LTSC option. It works out to about $300.
- zaruvi 7mo agoHaha, I always guess whether or not there will be an LTSC comment before checking the comments. These days it's always there, even early after posting.
