    Please edit your post, the quote didn't go well and is not needed.

    2016 LTSB is still getting normal support, so yes, it should work.

    Hello, after tried all version of LTSB (and LTSC, even Win11 2024 iot enterprise) i can say that the best for me is this one, followed by the 2015 version, easy to manage the settings, updates and remove unwanted bloatware without any third party script, very lighweight and fast, however i have only an issue with my GTX 1660Ti turing card, no matter how many non-dhc drivers i tried, drivers refuse to install cause outdated OS error.

    Can someone tell me a procedure or a modded nvidia drivers to be able to install my card? 419.xx are the ones who work best for me if possible. If is not fleasible then i will be forced to go with LTSC 2019 but i prefer not. Any help is appreciated, thank you.

    Glad to hear it ! It's always satisfying when such artificial limitations can be overcome !

    Yea, screw their limitations on better versions of windows, from 2019 LTSC it became more heavy with more bloat and forced updates, very sad.
