    Before you recycle your Windows 10 PC (or just switch to Linux and avoid wasting resources), keep in mind while Windows 10 22H2 is ending in 7 months, 21H2 LTSC Enterprise is still good for 1 year 10 months:

    To download the 21H2 LTSC, go here:

    https://archive.org/details/en-us_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2021_x64_202301

    Then generate a free license key using the Ohook or KMS38 methods via PowerShell as explained here:

    Disclaimer: I haven’t tried this myself so there may be some bugs/issues along the way. For my next laptop, I’m thinking about switching to Linux and specifically Ubuntu or Fedora, so this won’t really impact me

      Ubuntu user here. I get glitches from time to time, and the newest update caused a more than small issue with booting. However, compared to the litany of glitches, bloatware, and user-anti-interface of Windows, I’ll sing the praises of Ubuntu all day long. Even the few games I play, like Cyber Punk, run perfectly.
