I have a legit Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019 key, but no longer have access to the company. Trying to upgrade to 2021... Do I need to activate a certain way? I tried the other day, but received a message that I wasn't connected to the "organization's activation server" Maybe I have the wrong x64 ISO?
but received a message that I wasn't connected to the "organization's activation server" you just answered to yourself there are plenty of good activators, MAS 1.8 (Google Search) & KMS VL ALL from abbodi1406 just try by yourself...
i'm prefer MAS . Use once and everytime i re-install LTSC. They will activate my windows. I just don't know how can they actually made it work?
MAS activates 2021 LTSC by HWID after converting it to IoT LTSC first, so after a clean install the HWID won't be there automatically. They initially made it work by looking what the gatherosstate.exe does but the result was not allowed to be published here
A small query, do these updates add "minor features" like "show search highlights" option in taskbar search box in LTSC 2021? @abbodi1406 @Carlos Detweiller
Kinda lost, which iso do i download to install windows 10 english, LTSC? I have rufus, just need to find an iso to create the usb install disk.
I just did this a few days ago, on 4/11/2023 to be precise. Everything worked, and the resulting ISO image was written to a flash drive with Rufus and used to install LTSC 2021 on a new computer, no problems whatsoever. I gathered all the files listed by Enthusiast, put them in a directory together with W10UI version 10.25, extracted an original ISO image: en-us_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64_dvd_d289cf96.iso and then had at it. Let me just add a big "Thank You" to Enthusiast for all of his work putting this stuff together for us. Here is the output from running W10UI: Code: ============================================================ Running W10UI v10.25 ============================================================ ============================================================ Extracting .cab files from .msu files... ============================================================ 1/6: windows10.0-kb5012170-x64_47b8ba3bb35c66bbd0631f5425805ccf1dafaf67.msu 2/6: windows10.0-kb5015684-x64_523c039b86ca98f2d818c4e6706e2cc94b634c4a.msu 3/6: windows10.0-kb5020683-x64_119695f48aa3f28a5f68a3dff367957ef8b0f576.msu 4/6: windows10.0-kb5022498-x64-ndp481_c1aab0d4db956163b55ef96eca37af8ad05b102e.msu 5/6: windows10.0-kb5023319-x64-ndp48_381b07db55888307af99f2529ea73ac2bd8ec277.msu 6/6: windows10.0-kb5025221-x64_4cd9fd91665e48fc9a7941376973e2e41c4308e2.msu ============================================================ Extracting files from update cabinets (.cab)... *** This will require some disk space, please be patient *** ============================================================ 1/10: windows10.0-kb5007401-x64_f1bf61d834bb8d9951c7efa23454643daae195b0.cab 2/10: Windows10.0-KB5011048-x64.cab [NetFx] 3/10: Windows10.0-KB5012170-x64_PSFX.cab [SecureBoot] 4/10: Windows10.0-KB5015684-x64_PSFX.cab [Enablement] 5/10: Windows10.0-KB5020683-x64_PSFX.cab 6/10: windows10.0-kb5021043-x64_efa19d2d431c5e782a59daaf2d04d026bb8c8e76.cab [SafeOS DU] 7/10: Windows10.0-KB5022498-x64-NDP481.cab [NetFx] 8/10: Windows10.0-KB5023319-x64-NDP48.cab [NetFx] 9/10: windows10.0-kb5023847-x64_0d515544d250e8d35de07eb37cf84c06284a04aa.cab [Setup DU] 10/10: Windows10.0-KB5025221-x64.cab [Combined] 11/12: Windows10.0-KB5023794-x64_inout.cab [SSU] 12/12: Windows10.0-KB5025221-x64_inout.cab [LCU] ============================================================ Mounting sources\install.wim - index 1/2 ============================================================ Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool Version: 10.0.22621.1 Mounting image [==========================100.0%==========================] The operation completed successfully. ============================================================ Checking Updates... ============================================================ ============================================================ Installing servicing stack update... ============================================================ Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool Version: 10.0.22621.1 Image Version: 10.0.19044.1288 Processing 1 of 1 - Adding package Package_for_ServicingStack_2780~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~19041.2780.1.0 [==========================100.0%==========================] The operation completed successfully. ============================================================ Installing updates... ============================================================ Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool Version: 10.0.22621.1 Image Version: 10.0.19044.1288 Processing 1 of 1 - Adding package Package_for_KB5012170~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~19041.1880.1.1 [==========================100.0%==========================] The operation completed successfully.
