I'm an ordinary member just like you. And if this guy can get away with this unsubstantiated bulls**t because it's just his opinion: Then consider my response just my opinion as well. Even tough this should never be a matter of opinion, but hard facts backed by Microsoft and AMD, you know, the people that make Windows, and Zen 2 respectively. Zen 2 aside, my personal experience with literally hundreds of potatoes and not so potatoes have confirmed my "bias" like clockwork. I've seen plenty of devices unable to run above 1507, 1511, 1607 or 1703 (very few), but none unable to run above 1809. That's the only LTSx criteria in my book. From updating to defender scanning to indexing and searching to opening powershell or event viewer, I see 1909 / 2004 faster in daily usage than 1809. If only people would give it a bit of time to settle after install (and complete exfiltrating the data and cache all the candy crush and chredge, mind you). Happy with 1809? Get freaky with it. But if I see any of you posting in the upcoming LTS* thread, you better be sure I'm gonna call you out if I'm still around..
So is the latest version of windows enterprise 20H2 is recommended or any other preference or suggestion of windows version youre gonna give for Zen 2 cpus
I haven't tested it yet... I'm gonna use MRPconfig to REMOVE as much of the M$ OS Bloat as possible, then after installation in VMware, I'm gonna use Open-Shell 4.4.162 to make Windows 7ish as much as possible... I hate M$ CRAPs and BLOAT... OBTW, I really like LTSC 2019 and have NEVER had issues using it so far... I update it with monthly CU's etc... I used Windows 7 Pro and LTSB 2016 for years then eventually upgraded to LTSC 2019 once most of the BUGS were fixed... I'm mostly curious about 1909 Enterprise and IF I can debloat it per above, then I will TEST it further...
I have tested it. Its not like winidows 10 enterprise eval or ltsc 2019. It is totally bloated with windows crap. Windows apps, store and edge was installed. Need to dig more
But there are several benchmarks on the internet showing that there are no gains in games in versions after 1809 using Ryzen and benchmarks showing very little or no gains in applications. However I did not find any site showing the problems you point out. Now you have argued thanks (I'm not being ironic).
this thread and OP links need to be cleaned up. wasted 10mins searching for a basic DL link for en_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2019_x64_dvd_5795bb03.iso and found it in 5 secs on a different forum
Just approaching the one year mark of LTSC on 2 machines and both machines are rock solid. I was really worried about moving from Windows 7 to 10 and hearing about LTSC here made me take the jump. Thanks to all the patient people in this thread who generously helped and posted useful info that I could read to get started. I spend hours a day on the computer so it is a real relief to be able to use an OS that I like. Thanks again, you guys.
I can't wait for the newer one to be released. I'd be using it now but can't since I have a Zen2 CPU. Can't wait, can't wait!

I made a new ISO with updates from this POST. But on installation I still got this in it. Did I miss something here? Thank you for any reply
