    I just downloaded

    en_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2019_x64_dvd_5795bb03.iso


    and

    en-uk_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2019_x64_dvd_723dfbc1.exe

    to create

    en-uk_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2019_x64_dvd_723dfbc1.iso

    with the following details:

    SHA1: 1BC39AED5E329237AE4CCC569F0809633CB30290
    File Size: 4,327,454,720 bytes (4.03 GB)

    Since this thread is specifically about win 10 Enterprise (N) LTSC 2019, I have what could possibly be a dumb question.

    Does an official (a.k.a. untouched) N version of en-uk_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2019_x64_dvd_723dfbc1.iso exist?

    If not, is it possible to create one using an SVF (or SVFSFX)?

    Note: By N version, I mean a version of win 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019 without the disputed media features. This is my first attempted installation of LTSC, so I am curious to know if at all a N version exists.

    Build 17763.1 (original first release) and build 17763.316 (feb. 2019 refresh ISO) both contain N SKU.

    Thank you very much for your prompt clarification.

    It is greatly appreciated.

    Since I have already downloaded 17763.316 (feb. 2019 refresh ISO), how do I ensure that only the N SKU is installed?

    Are there any steps involved like editing EI.CFG in the ISO's 'Sources' directory?

    Post edit:

    Never mind. I solved it myself.

    No need to edit EI.CFG in the ISO's 'Sources' directory.

    You just need to add a PID.txt file containing the win 10 Enterprise (N) LTSC 2019 Product ID to the ISO's 'Sources' directory.

    Then setup installs the N version by default.

    Because it's a completely different version?

    Activation (KMS) worked exactly the same for me on LTSC 2021, as it did on LTSC 2019. No issues.

    just get massgravel (GOOGLE) and then activate it with option 3.
    for days you try to activate it, people make fun of you, just listen once and do it, so this is finally done.

    One is build 17763.1 (original release) and the other is build 17763.107 (official re-release), just newer updates pre-integrated by MSFT.

    Is possible to switch "LTSC non-iot 1809" to "LTSC iot 1809", and viceversa?

    I know that "LTSC non-iot 20h2" can be switched to "LTSC iot 20h2"

    IoT LTSC 2019 does not exist at all
    it's just regular LTSC OEM keys that MS sell to IoT vendors

    oh s**t i just discovered another Windows 10 LTSC 2019 bug! suddenly Windows crashed yesterday when I was responding to a thread here on MDL only to see that it was the file srt\srtmil and I could only recover the system using the system image saved on another ssd; this way I can see having to modify the LTSC 2021 iso and use it begrudgingly; hmm sometimes makes you want to return to Windows 7...;):mad:
