Good video. You can add another use case to your slide -- thin clients for remote users who just need a single app to securely connect to Azure VM's or AVD
Good comparison! This answered several questions I was digging for, but I'm hoping you can definitively clear something up. I've seen some documents that seem to dance around the topic, or say one thing, only to contradict it later. It is the use of "Windows 10 IoT" We've been using Win 10 LTSB for many years. Our environment went from 1507 LTSB to 1607 LTSB, and is currently moving to 1809 LTSC, but how do I respond to managers who ask when we are moving to "Win 10 IoT"? Where is a statement from Microsoft saying 'LTSB or LTSC, is IoT'? Or, if I'm wrong, what is the difference between IoT and LTSB/LTSC? Thanks, Claude
Hi Claude, great question. It's covered in this video: arw.li/6050PxDOa The name IoT is the name of the Microsoft licensing channel, and it stands for Internet of Things, but it really replaced the older name of “Embedded”. LTSC is the name of the Windows servicing channel and it simply means Long Term Service Channel which indicates it will have a longer support cycle - aka 10 years. The LTSC edition is available in both the IoT channel and in the non IoT or Open Volume channel. The IoT channel is strictly for OEMs that build, manufacture, and resell fixed purpose hardware appliances such as medical equipment, fast food kiosks, cash registers, or anything that has a fixed purpose - not general purpose use.The Open Volume channel is for general purpose use and is purchased by end user companies for their own internal use. If you are an OEM building an appliance then you would or should be using the Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC products. If you are an end-user, using the products for internal use, then you would purchase the Volume CSP channel LTSC products. Hope that helps!
IoT and LTSC are similar IoT just means embedded for specific devices like a Retinal Camera. Runs 1 app faster and less bloated + longer support life. LTSC very similar but has shorter update life. Both better than Pro. But how did you activate your IoT? Using a LTSC key will turn off the IoT and thus lose 5 years of updates.
No, IoT runs a lot lot faster because it's not filled with extra junk that slow down the OS to a crawl. IoT ltsc is almost fast as win 7 or xp. Use IoT ltsc if you have a moderate amount of computer knowladge and know how to inatall software without having a preinstalled browser. Look up Chris Titus's "win util" tool to easily install software

Many thanks very helpful info
Can I use Windows 10 IoT LTSC as Windows 10 Pro? The regular LTSC doesn't seem to have extended support.
Yes you can
Thank you, very good information. I Should Install Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC instead of Pro version.
yes

Thank you
is there any reasons to use pro over iot, does pro run faster or do they both run software the same

Games don't run on IoT
@@CAL1MBOfalse, it does. I have a dedicated gaming VM that is running win10 IoT
Also to the video poster: it ain't cool to delete helpful comments like that.
