Windows 10 Without the Cruft: Windows 10 LTSB (Long Term Servicing Branch)
I&#x27;m on ltsb for my business laptop and it stinks. Id rather have random issues with a few upgrades than be stuck without new features and get almost no bug fixes. New features I get for my home machine are missing on my job laptop. New dpi handling improvements coming Nope, not in ltsb.<p>It appears to get security fixes only - few bug fixes.
For example, the LTSB start menu is completely broken - there is no search on it and it takes 3-4 seconds to show. Presumably related to the lack of Cortana, but who knows. In any case, it&#x27;s been a widely reported bug in ltsb for a long time and it&#x27;s a pretty fundamental feature in windows.<p>I could see the point in being on the LTSB branch of <i>windows 7</i> because that OS is done. But windows 10 isn&#x27;t nearly finished yet and very rough around the edges. Being on LTSB of such an old Win10 release is like being on the release day version of a AAA game while everyone else runs the fixed version that came out 3 months later.
