Preferably from 2020 onwards and without the need for a mandatory product key/Microsoft account, I've already had a lot of headaches because of these two "casualities"!

Download the ISO directly from MS.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10iso

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11

Activate using: https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts

Not a contributing comment but just wanted to say:

THIS IS THE WAY

For those that needed to hear that.

Massgrave also has links to installation media, notably the LTSC versions. The IoT LTSC is especially nice since it lacks lots of the bloat.

I run this one on my T480 and it was honestly refreshing. I don't believe the Microsoft store is even enabled by default which was a really nice change of pace from all the crap it's usually got. Just enable what you want... how it should be but instead, "muh CoPilot".

IoT LTSC still has some bloat (edge), the main advantage of it is that you get 10 years of security updates
