I have also mentioned this on more than a few occasions. I dual boot (very rarely to Windows nowadays) and I always use LTSC installs on all my dual boot setups. 0 problems thus far regarding GRUB and other Windows update related issues.

I still don't know why people use Pro... maybe LTSC is more niche than I thought and MS is not pushing ads for that one out there.

A lot of misinformation for ltsc, people thinking its only for kiosks and cant be used as a daily.

Given the choice for sketchy script messing with registry or sketchy key I'm going sketchy key, at least I know windows iso is legitimate, crazy so few know of ltsc and choose the latter.

Yeah, I'm surprised as well. Not enough research I guess... MS is very clear about what LTSC is and what it's not, as well as what it can do and what not.

Oh well, I spread the word when and where I can, will keep doing so. I hope dual booters catch on the LTSC installs and have less problems with GRUB.
