Where would one be able to find a win10 LTSC without giving jeetrosoft another dime? Have you had any issues with any compatibility of certain software for win11 or does it all map over? I’m somewhat ignorant of how backwards compatible win11 is to win10.
You can have it do hardware activation, then you wipe drive and reinstall from ISO. Lots of other options.
The IoT LTSC is good until 2032. ISO isn't public from Microsoft but when I did it the mirrors all agreed on the hash so probably is legit.
The only problems I've had are no clock on the lock screen, but there's probably some games that break or will in the future years - I'll just use linux if that happens.
Internet of Things edition doesn't have the app store so no clock, timer, etc. Calculator is old school.
You might have a different edition converted to IoT product id to get support.
I'd rather it be official just in case, even though I expect MS to put effort into even keeping normal home edition safely working; anybody still on Win 10 going to linux as soon as anything goes wrong.

Clock works on mine and I don't recall doing anything to get that working.
I'll say that I don't expect game compatibility issues for a good long while given just how long I was able to get away with Windows 7.
IIRC I found the ISO over on the MyDigitalLife forum, so go snoop there and there's a few other guides floating around on how to get started with it.
