Microsoft is working on a new enterprise-focused version of Windows 11

Microsoft is said to be working on a new enterprise-focused version of Windows 11, called Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC), which is expected to be released in the second half of this year. A leaked Windows 11 2024 LTSC ISO has revealed plans for an "IoT Enterprise Subscription" tailored for business users. The ISO, built on Windows 11 23H2, suggests that the LTSC release is underway. Windows 11 LTSC is expected to provide a stable operating system for enterprise customers, with support for ten years. Microsoft's plans to end support for Windows 10 in October 2025 won't affect LTSC support.
