I tried to run IoT Enterprise 2021 LTSC setup.exe and final screen says I can "Keep all files and apps", I didn't continue as I saw your post. Is there a reason why you recommend to run first Enterprise 2021 LTSC and then switch to IoT? I switch mainly because I do work on own game and I want to move everything to a new Engine version which has these OS requirements.
Because in the past you could not directly upgrade from normal Enterprise 20xx LTSC > IoT Enterprise 2021 LTSC, so if it allowed you to keep all files you can go ahead and upgrade i guess.
Windows 10 LTSC 2021 is the last version. The new version is Windows 11 LTSC 2024, and it's already out.
There already is a new release, you mention it yourself: (IoT) Enterprise 2024 LTSC: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...ot-enterprise-n-ltsc-2024-24h2-26100-x.88280/
Since they followed up the 2021 LTSC win 10 version with the 2024 LTSC win 11 version, no new Win 10 based LTSC expected, they already are supported till 2027 (Enterprise 2021 LTSC) and 2032 (IoT Enterprise 2021 LTSC)
In which files are the images of the oobe (background...). I looked in the oobe or branding folder but nothing. Maybe a .dll ?

There is no updated IoT enterprise 2021 LTSC ISO, LTSB/C just gets one release, only when they f**k up there will be refresh ISOs, like with 2019 LTSC.
I wasn't aware that was possible. I had not heard of W10ui before. Can you tell me where I can learn more about it and how to achieve getting the kb updates for 22h2 in an ltsc version of windows 10? Thanks
https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1571109 At the bottom of this post you can find info on how to create an uptodate (IoT) Enterprise 2021 LTSC ISO yourself, using W10UI.
w10ui: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/windows-10-hotfix-repository.57050/page-105#post-1216064 Basically you put your target iso in the appropriate subfolder, put the update files in another appropriate subfolder and run the script. You should really have a virtual machine program like vmware to test the result if you are new with this sort of thing so you can test the result iso. Otherwise you would have to re-install the os over and over until you got your iso where you like it. I'm sorry I can't be more specific. It's been a couple years. The link has more info and I think even if it isn't perfectly clear, running the script will probably give a message telling you where the updates go.
When integrating updates to LTSC 2021 IoT, can I skip WinRE with W10UI? I've looked through the options and there is only to skip updating WinRE, not to remove it.
From my understanding, it isn't necessary to remove it in W10UI. I don't do anything about it, not needed-- Look at my post and logs a few posts above I have this original ISO 10.0.19041, extract it to a folder, put the updates and W10UI alongside, edit the W10UI options as you want it and then let it do its work
