@Enthousiast Sorry, what I meant was and please bear with me. My English is quite poor, if I install Windows 10 tlsc from the iso that I showed in my previous post, then install some drivers, will it be ready to play games, run programs, and do other things, or will it require these SVF Patches that I keep seeing here, are they truly necessary, or can I ignore them? Please forgive my ignorance, but what is the difference between HWID activation tools and KMS activation? Is one of them permanently activated? I'm looking for something similar so that I only have to activate Windows tlsc once and then forget about it.
The SVF(SFX) patches are meant to get you the install ISO of your language and architecture, once you got the ISO you can install the OS. HWID is a retail digital license, valid for the lifetime of the hardware. KMS is Volume activation working for 180days but with autorenewal it will run "perpetual".
@Enthousiast Thank you for taking the time to clarify everything. I'm still undecided on which to use, so which do you recommend for a newbie like me, HWID or KMS, or does it not matter?
Why can't we distribute homebrew versions of Windows or Decrypted esd files. If they're pre activated that makes sense. Is it because they may contain viruses or something?
1. forum rule 2. when they were decrypted they couldn't be verified anymore and were considered homebrew 3. the encryption is gone since many many ESD releases now 4. only officially released and/or untouched files are allowed
Is 1809 getting updates oobe? No hacks, tricks, etc? Can I make latest feature-updated 17763.3287 media from uupdump, install it and use normally?
No, the only supported 17763 SKU is Enterprise 2019 LTSC and that one is not available by the UUP system, you can download the updates to integrate it into an Enterprise 2019 LTSC ISO.
Speaking of luzeadev's Winactivate v2.0, it is no longer up on Github. Don't know what happened to luzeadev - if the developer is still active or not.

Sorry for the dumb question, do you recommend integrating Dotnet 4.8? Current version is 6.0 so I was wondering if there is any reason to also have 4.8 in ltsc.
