Windows 10 support ends Tomorrow (October 14, 2025)

Usually, it also requires installing a few dependencies.
No it does not. You have no idea what you're talking about. You can literally just paste the following into powershell as admin or command prompt in Win10 LTSC or Win11 LTSC:

Code:
wsreset -i

That code only will clear the MS Store's cache and reinstall and re-register the Store app. It's good for Windows 11 Pro/Home systems. That is a repair/reset tool, not an installation.
But it will fail in LTSC because it does not have the following dependencies. So it requires to install these AppX packages: ; VCLibs, .NET Native frameworks; Microsoft Store.
And yes, I have already done this process in one of my previous Windows LTSC installations.
 
It's literally how I fucking installed it on my Windows 11 LTSC installation and I've been doing it since Windows 10 LTSC

You literally don't have to install shit man. No AppX or shit. Just that one command is all you need. After a while in the notification centre it will show it's install the store.
Don't try to argue it when I've been doing it for years

Then you already had installed those dependencies.
The command is self explanatory. It's to reset the MS Store.

It's literally after Windows 10/11 has just been installed without literally doing anything else. Don't be smart ass and go try it yourself.

I already have in previous installations. You are not talking to some tech illiterate. I have been using LTSC, even when it was called LTSB.
 

I'm happily on ESU whilst watching MS backpedal from the sidelines. Local account, moveable task bar, pull back of AI in everything, a focus on optimization over new features. They're not in the driving seat right now and are having to listen. It's a good time for the customer to get more of what they ask for.

Hopefully things link up so I either hop over to W11 after its lengthy public beta or I can switch to a linux distro should some of the dependencies I have add linux compatibility.

If needs be I'll switch to Win 10 LTSC.

I've seen the rumblings about dropping Win 10 support from some places. Steam dropped Win 7 support about two years back, and Photoshop dropped Win 7 support in about 2021. So there is a good legacy of supporting OS's a long time after Microsoft have given up on them. Given how popular Win 10 is still, makes sense to keep supporting it for a while yet.
