Good timing. I might need to do a new install for Battlefield 2042 beta starting tomorrow. It has been a while.
Me too, installed the beta but it tells me that my win10 ltsc 2019 is not supported thus i cant even start it
Strange. It let me into the game without issue after clicking away the window. Obviously the game itself isn't unlocked yet. But I can also use console commands to get into their loading area, which seems to just be a normal kind of mission area. Error I'm getting says "Detected Windows version 17763. The required Windows version is: 19041 or later. Please update windows."
In 19041 run these 2 commands in PowerShell: Code: Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online And in Settings apps uninstall OneDrive. There you have a new LTSC For games 19041 has directx 12 ultimate features that 17763 doesn't. But so far I don't know of a game that uses these new features. Would Battlefield 2042 beta be one of them? However these new features only exist on new video cards like the RTX or GTX 16 series.
EA has listed DirectX 12 is a minimum requirement but I'm not sure it has anything requiring the absolutely latest versions. This is a game that's also on PS4 and Xbox One. My dxdiag is saying I've got DX12 (I have a 3080 GPU & a 9900k as well if that matters). I did put the latest GPU drivers on today which are for 2042. I guess we'll see tomorrow what happens.
By ISO upgrading, you can upgrade to normal 1904x enterprise with keeping files and apps, or wait till the new Enterprise LTSC is released and upgrade to that.
For those wondering about BF2042. It WONT run on LTSC 2019. It'll load but it wont let you join a game at all. Looks like it must have the newest DX12 crap for the game to work. Edit, Looks like it will work but it'll take a good 10 - 20 mins to load the game.
metro exodus enhanced edition requires DXR 1.1, so it won't run on LTSC 2019 at all. and resident evil 8 village requires DXR 1.1 for ray tracing. -andy-
For normal Enterprise upgrade, as long as it contains Enterprise higher then 1809+ you can upgrade to it. Language depends on the language of the installed and to be upgraded Enterprise 2019 LTSC.
