What I did is mount the ISO, deleted WinRE.wim, commited and created a new ISO, however, the ISO is not booting. What did I do wrong?

Hello everyone, my system is compatible with Windows 11 but I continue to find bugs everywhere, slowdowns in the context menus and other absurdities that only the new Microsoft management could come up with. At the moment I am using 11 but after discovering the existence of Windows 10 LTSC I am seriously thinking of making the switch. If I understand the only differences are: - support until 2032 - same level of security and defense features (sandbox, various mitigations, windows defender, etc...) - from 2021 there will be no further versions, so the features are those and those will remain - lack of windows store, photos app and photo viewer and lack of multimedia player Is everything correct? Or are there other things to know? In your opinion, given that the new LTSC based on Windows 11 will have the same defect as those based on 10, that is the impossibility of switching from one version to another, in your opinion does it make sense to wait for it? Because maybe in a year a new one will come out and to update you will always have to do a clean installation... Or will the new LTSC based on Windows 11 allow version jumps? Let me know, as an alternative I am also evaluating the switch to a Linux distribution like Ubuntu 24.04 and Linux Mint which seem really valid to me, considering that I have been using LibreOffice as an office suite for years. Here too I accept your opinion. Thanks
if you need the store you can add it in elevated cmd with "wsreset -i" command but you need ClipRenew.exe and ClipDLS.exe in C:\Windows\System32 folder, you can get those files from any client edition, make sure it's the same version as your build you need IoT Enterprise LTSC if you want support til 2032 Windows 11 LTSC was released months ago to OEMs, it's the same slow thing upgrade was always possible from any edition, you need correct upgrade matrix or edit the registry key
i think it's either Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC (2021) or Windows 11 24H2 Education there's no point in using Windows 11 based LTSC edition, the shell and file explorer are so slow compared to any Windows 10 build
not much, but you can disable 99% of telemetry with just one group policy setting (like in Enterprise and any LTSC edition)
kinda, if you want the newest thing then Windows 11 24H2 is the only option Windows 11 LTSC has no advantages over the Windows 10 based version also WIndows 11 based server is so weird, it's better to stick with the 20348 build
My doubt about W11 is that I think that 24H3 will be another improvement... in the crapware and privacy violation direction
