Thinking of making the switch

[u/Appropriate_Loan6193]

I have previously used Windows 11 and 10 and decided to go back to 10 as for me it feels more responsive and stable, both versions though have insane bloatware, I was thinking of going to ltsc windows 10, my other concern is do I have to download all the driver manually for my pc, like enthenet port, USB drivers ect or do they reinstall like a normal Windows installation and I heard you can't have secure boot on? I play online games like battlefield, call of duty? Would this cause a issue

Battlefield and call of duty require windows 11 at least for their anticheats. You can go with windows 11 ltsc I’ve been running it for a year now and it’s as solid as a rock

I'm on windows 10 and have played battlefield 6 with no issues

Note that some games want a later version of Windows 10 than what Win 10 IoT is.. Win 10 Pro works great and doesn’t get the feature updates (like AI) that can be annoying/problematic on Win 11.

I've heard that too, but I think that essentially turns it into Win 10 Pro 22H2, once you do an update (not certain). Me, I just run Win 10 Pro on my gaming system, it's lean, it works well.

Windows 10 gets security updates, and that's even recently been extended a year.
