    I accidentally noticed in convert UUP.cmd script a lot Windows editions I didn't think they exist.
    Are they all possible to build up-to-date and will they work just fine? Receive updates? Can they all be activated with HWID digital licence activator script?
    Are all 'China' editions only possible to build in Chinese?
    Are all LTSC lacking the Microsoft Store?
    What exactly are Team (PPIPro), Enterprise multi-session (ServerRdsh) and IoT Enterprise editions meant for?
    Why is the Starter edition at the end? I'd expect them to be somewhere among first third.
    Which editions have BitLocker and WSL2? Is there easyway to check what's included in given edition? I'd love to use Microsoft-designed minimal build. Literally I'd rather have NO built in apps and a stable system - which I wasn't able to achieve ever with f.i. MSMG.

    Here's the full list :
    Windows S (Cloud)
    Windows S N (CloudN)
    Windows Lean (CloudE)
    Windows Lean N (CloudEN)
    Windows SE (CloudEdition)
    Windows SE N (CloudEditionN)
    Windows LE (CloudEditionL)
    Windows LE N (CloudEditionLN)
    Windows Home China (CoreCountrySpecific)
    Windows Pro China Only (ProfessionalCountrySpecific)
    Windows Team (PPIPro)
    Windows Enterprise G (EnterpriseG)
    Windows Enterprise G N (EnterpriseGN)
    Windows Enterprise LTSC (EnterpriseS)
    Windows Enterprise N LTSC (EnterpriseSN)
    Windows IoT Enterprise (IoTEnterprise)
    Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC (IoTEnterpriseS)
    Windows Enterprise multi-session (ServerRdsh)
    Windows Starter (Starter)
    Windows Starter N (StarterN)
