Do you mean Windows 1x Pro/Enterprise?




Yes. Enterprise, Pro, and Home are the enshittified, retail editions. Enterprise just adds a few more features IIRC but still has ads. The other versions I mentioned above don't have any of that.

Enterprise is not retail and is usually done via volume licensing, but probably without any additional configuration it might have that stuff intact.

But you can use group policy etc. freely. I don't know how Win 11 is though


FWIW, ChatGPT advised against LTSC or Server editions for a dev workstation and recommended Enterprise, as you do. However, I can’t find Enterprise from a reputable EU vendor. Do you know of any? Is Enterprise available to end users?
