    Nice!

    Can we see a working script for 26100?

    It might also fix the below problem of:

    26100.1 has official packages. You want his\her "script", not "mixture".

    True, I want script - to study, as I am not using that in daily life, but am interested in technology.
    Official images are updated without scripts, but if we want reconstructed images (G or Starter), we have to reengineer updates.
    I'd prefer to listen to your way, as your knowledge is deeper than others here combined :)

    Server 2025 is LTSC if you install ServerStandad, ServerStandadCore, ServerDatacenter, or ServerDatacenterCore.
    AzureStackHCI and ServerTurbine follow different policy.
    You don't need to convert anything, as there is only LTSC.
    Next year (assume autumn 2025) we might see AzureStackHCI and ServerTurbineCore of Annual Cycle. Core only. No long term updates. And while you would be able to add GUI to core and install updates from Windows 11 25H2, it won't be LTSC, in few years updates would stop. Unlike current WS2025 26100.x which would be supported for 10 years.

    As kibkalo said, Non-AzureStackHCI Server is also LTSC.
    You wanna use it as Client LTSC, or you wanna convert it to Client LTSC?

    PS:
    If you are refering to sakatgg's post, the CU potentially will fail on build from 18362 forward.
    If you use it as Client, simply add Client Licenses and Key. Don't touch any other things for working update. And ServerRdsh could be the best. Because it is "Client & Server" 2-in-1.
    If you wanna reconstruct Client LTSC with Server Desktop Experience, you may encounter issues about "Optional features". Because 26100 Optional feature packages are different to previous builds.

    I cannot understand this post.

    1. LTSC, Client or Server?
    2. 25398.1 does not have LTSC. (The 26100 Client LTSC Licenses are what I asked zwl29107 to repack for working "WinX" without tweak.)

    You want to add Client LTSC License Package to Server Desktop Experience?
    If yes, no need. You just add Client LTSC License folder(s) to Server.
    If you added Client License packages to Server structure, CU will fail, or the added License Packages will be removed by CU.

    Good night.
