after reading your post, i checked the script KMS_VL_ALL_AIO.cmd and they use the IP 172.16.0.2 only as a default IP for the dummy server. i never noticed the xml file you talked about when the activation is offline with auto-renewal [option 1 in their menu]. Do you know where they put it? edit : that was wiwth v38, an old version, v45 does not have this IP adress at all.
I just installed IoT LTSC without a product key (I clicked on Already reinstalled and tested. Yes, I confirm what I said before, you can add your language and keyboard layout on IoT. The IoT converted to regular LTSC because I used KMS_VL_ALL to activate it, the tool probably converted the license and/or key. That answers also to the user question in post #254 of this thread (that is https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...rprise-n-ltsc-2021.84509/page-13#post-1705842 )
I don't use KMS_VL_ALL KMS38 does not store any file on the system--just a timestamp of when the KMS activation ends--the year 2038--hence KMS38
No, it's written everywhere that it's only 5 years. Only the IoT LTSC version will get 10 years support. But as long as I can see, you can pass pretty easily from IoT LTSC to regular LTSC and vice versa by changing the product key, so you can pass to IoT when the regular LTSC support ends. Correct me if I'm wrong. Yes, but it should be easy to return back to IoT (as I just wrote above).
tested lot enterprise... it can be activated by kms.... almost same for me... the screen shot is not working same as ltsc 2021 ..... microsoft removed it already
