    I'd like to do a clean install of Windows 10 LTSC on a system that currently has the home version. Is there an absolute beginner's guide to start out? I've been reading articles and they mention I need to buy an OEM license to start and they have conflicting information. What is my best bet to do this correctly?

    Here is all info about officially released Enterprise 2019 LTSC ISOs.

    Installation is exactly the same as with any other SKU and activation can easily be done by using KMS_VL_ALL

    As a private person you won't be eligible for a genuine LTSC license.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Where is all the info? I don't see a link in the first line. Is there a beginner's guide for a newb like me?

    The license links I've seen are from third parties. Are these legal?

    I tried to learn as much as i could before i posted but again i'm a complete novice. Hench the reason i asked for it to be ELI2. Why even reply to me if you're only going to be unhelpful and kind of rude?
