    Hi, I have installed IoT in English and added the Italian language from the settings (and set as preferred), "Welcome user" appears on the start screen and not "Benvenuto

    user"

    You must set the new language for Welcome screen and possibly also for new accounts.

    Nope, install pt-PT Enterprise 2024 LTSC and switch to IoT Enterprise 2024 LTSC: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1853152

    In this way, bitlocker encryption is enabled at the beginning of the installation.
    to turn off bitlocker you have to open a cmd as admin and run the command:

    manage-bde -off C:

    There is another way to do it but it is a little more complicated.

    This is without using the MRP option?

    Only "show my pc icon on desktop" option is selected.

    I have never seen bitlocker activate itself at clean install, only once seen it activated after a while because the user turned his offline windows account into an online account because of not paying attention at the options the nag screen showed, together with auto onedrive backups.

    Re-installing but now the index without MRP, enterprise 2024 LTSC.

    hmm strange in all my tests (on the latest version of Virtualbox 7.1.2) it was encrypting at start of OOBE screens
    my Virtualbox has access to the Internet during the tests
    i don't know why it encrypts at startup of the installation

    There will probably be other test conditions, like disk type (HDD vs. SSD), if VM, TPM support, account type etc.

    TPM 2.0 is supported here, SSD is used, only account type i cannot test, i don't have anything to use for the online test, not going to put in energy and time in that, the video shows what i did and no bitlocker is activated by default.

    Yeah, I guess they activate Bitlocker only when MS account is used, so they can back up the Bitlocker key into the cloud.
    If they activated it without a cloud backup of the key, and the user lost it, they would be in for a lot of lawsuits, as the user never consciously chose to use Bitlocker.

    Hi all, asking your opinions/views..

    I've always been using Enterprise Subscription (Business Enterprise) edition all this while on all my main machines, but I'm curious as to whether it is better to switch to IoT Enterprise LTSC?

    What are the main differences? Or gotchas that I need to watch out for if I switch?
    * Some features (especially later in the lifecycle) like maybe Copilot, or Recall or etc (?) may not be available, or may only be offered much later than release
    * MS Store needs to be enabled, so as to be able to run Store Apps, UWP, etc etc etc apps
    * Any others?

    What are the advantages of IoT Enterprise LTSC?
    * 10 years of hotfix support
    * Better performance (without some optional stuff?)

    And I'm just curious, which edition do the senior people here who do a lot of coding and building and testing with VMs and such, like Enthousiast, abbodi1406, etc use for their day-to-day?

    PS, much thanks to all of you who make it possible for me to even consider this question! ^_^

    How long is always? It has been available for just a few months.

    But the only difference should be that the subscription version needs payment (officially used) and the other on doesn't.

    Not really, only in the hype.

    I personally run IoT Enterprise 2021 LTSC atm.

    I never use the store, and i run it just for the fun anyways, could easily be that i will upgrade to 24H2 education or maybe IoT Enterprise 2024 LTSC, in the past i switched monthly :D

    I guess I meant the "regular" Business Enterprise edition from the normal channels, the non-LTSC one...

    But I read that IoT Enterprise LTSC skips a lot of "stuff", like the MS App Store, etc.. So I kind of hoped that yes, it is smoother performance, or have a cleaner setup/install without so much extra stuff...

    No real difference there either, LTSC only has the long term servicing patch applied and no pre-installed UWP apps, the core is still the same.
