Some advice: trying too hard to sound logical almost always permeates outlandish responses, as your quote clearly shows. Instead of getting pissy, try responding cool and collectively, and then I will engage you further.
Well if this sounds like "trying too hard & outlandish" in your eyes then I guess you have some low standards regarding written communication(& apparently sarcasm too).I won't waste your time anymore so this matter is over from my side.
It would seem that Win 10 LTSB will be updated every three years, the next update being next year, 2016, 2019 and so on. Anyone know if this will be an upgrade or a fresh install and will the next release require a fresh licence?
LTSB is not offered on WU, so you will need to download an iso and clean install or upgrade by iso. Next LTSB = 2018 LTSC (1809), according to MSFT.
How do I go from an official 2016 LTSB image to the most current patched image without dism? Can I use ESD or SVF? I only want official sources.
There is no ESD for LTSB and svf is for patching iso's. There also is no "most current patched" LTSB iso, you either create an uptodate LTSB iso yourself and use it to upgrade or wait 2 months and install/upgrade to the 1809 LTSC. Or install the updates manually by downloading the msu files, msu file can be run manually by doubleclicking the exe. For when you meant changing from Enterprise LTSB to regular Enterprise, you need to change some regkeys and you can do the switch (ask @s1ave77, he did it recently).
Seems like you cannot win. Most people told me the trackers were an issue and now you tell me it is only an issue if you're missing a tracker. -- If you can provide me a tracker which is always online (so I do not have to keep updating URL's or IP's) and is not blocked by major ISP's, I'll add it.
The fact that you do not support 32 bit is same as you do not care about all those member here who have less than 3 gb ram and a weak machine. for most people x86 in not a choice, its a need. and dont worry about verification bcoz rutracker is a very active community and every material is verified. since this thread op link your torrents to download then at least make sure your post have active torrents (x86).
YES. I'm a good person. I never said I was a nice person though. Spoiler: All joking aside All joking aside, I would need to redownload a verified, trusted copy (preferably not off of a Russian site) in order to reseed another 32-bit copy since I no longer have one, myself.
I download all the iso's through torrent and i use rutracker for that. i've downloaded the x86 x64 bit ltsb iso's from the link i mentioned above and they have correct hashes and there is no reason other files in that torrent going to be bad. beside that a site is not bad only bcoz it is russian okay, as i've said it is a active community, any wrong file would be immediately reported and deleted. just like mdl.
Well what I said only applies to a minority of ISPs,it was more an info so you can tell this to somebody complaining they are unable to find any seeders for your torrents on their end.
