    Pro N just doesn't have a Media Player and a few media apps.

    Folks Folks Folks,

    Stay Clear and Don't Touch Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB for personal or home use, stick with Pro, you will have less head aches and less negative surprises in the very near future.

    Its now out there, take my advise if not your own your own on this one.:hug2:

    Do-do you work for MS?

    You seem to enjoy spreading around how home users shouldn't use Enterprise :p.

    You're making me wonder....is Applocker really that good for home users?

    Good job but what about clean full activations, Dear Friend? :rolleyes:

    Easy to upgrade and a fresh install but what about that other major factor if a user doesn't have a legit ;) key for gkms activation on the new M$ Volume Partner Group/Groups Server?


    Just have a half working OS sounds like fun to me... YIKES :clap:

    I don't know where you saw that. I'm looking at it right now: "If the status for this policy is set to Disabled, any updates that are available on Windows Update must be downloaded and installed manually."

    And for Enterprise (haven't tried LTSB flavor), that is correct and it works.

    You think???:tea:

    Do you know anything about Wave Updates that's are coming down the pipe at any given time and out of the blue for every version of Windows 10 ?

    Wave 2 and Wave 3 will eat alive any crack kms activation and get ready to reformat again or load up your VM machine to try to figure it out again,

    Wave Upgrades are going to be part of windows 10 forever it is what it is.

    You are right.

    Obviously Microsoft not stupid. They know everyone taking advantage with KMS

    In fact I'm going to guess and say they might even update the protocol this month with SR1 down the pipeline (just an honest opinion)

    Even office 2016: Their is no way that they'll be allowing KMS on that one...
    They won't let that slide...

    I think they will wait until further along with the free upgrade offer. Perhaps towards the end, if anything.
    Would be kind-of a waste of money for them to do it now and give ppl this much time to work on it before the demand shoots up in a year.

    Can someone confirm that search works like it should be in this version?

    I use to to simply type "calc" in start menu to find calculator, or "task" to find task scheduler, but my new personal digital assistant Cortana is dumb as f*** and can't do these simple tasks.

    Seems like Cortana is more useless than that stupid dog from windows XP search.

    Voice search can be useful in small devices with small keyboards, but what's the point to integrate it in desktops?

    Hey Cortana! you are dismissed!

    Well, I wouldn't expect people to be using Cortana in an enterprise. Therefore, this version doesn't have it. Simple as that :D
    It's just limited to search

    Cortana can be typed into (not possible with Siri or Hey Google). Put down the tinfoil, people.

    Bloatware?

    To those of you complaining that Modern/Universal applications are bloatware, how large is a desktop application that does the same thing as a Universal/Modern application does. I have news for you - most desktop software is NOT small, is far from concise, and has a nasty habit of eating MORE resources while running than Modern or Universal Windows applications do. On top of that, some Modern or Universal applications have NO desktop or legacy equivalents - which means what? You open a browser tab? Your tablet? Your phone? Small is VLC (which replaced Windows Media Player back when I was running Windows 7) and is available for every OS under the moon or sun (including Android, iOS, and OS X). Small is Mail (which, if it weren't for some features I find all too useful in Outlook, COULD actually replace it). How much in the way of resources does Modern actually USE in the background? There IS a way to find out (using Task Manager's Detail View) - you'd be surprised low LITTLE Modern actually uses in the way of resources. What makes it worse is that most of you resource misers likely have burlier hardware than my most powerful Windows 10 PC (my desktop), if not Mom's AIO - which is MORE powerful than my desktop. My wimpiest PC running 10 is my oldest - an ex-Vista notebook with an old nVidia GPU; in fact, the GPU is so old I'm running the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter. It's my content-consumption notebook, and runs more Modern apps than desktop and other notebook put together. Modern and Universal apps aren't even an issue - the issue is the age of the GPU - period. Why are you being so Scroogelike in the first place?
