[QUOTE="Mystic, post: 1000531, member: 95994"] My laptop is was released in 2017 and Acer stopped releasing drivers long time ago. Windows 10 1803 worked perfectly and 1809 too. But newer releases especially 21H2 gave me sound issues and my drivers did not work correctly. To avoid that, I ran Windows 10 Enterprise, for it is supported for a much longer time than Home and Pro edition. Unfortunately, neither 1803 nor 1909 are supported now. I have been looking for alternatives for a very long time and I have stumbled on Windows 10 Enterprise 2019 LTSC which is basically Windows 10 1809 and it is still supported till 2024 and with extended support till 2029. Now the issue is the availability of this version of Windows and activation. I do not want to run a hacked or cracked version of Windows no matter what. I downloaded the ISO from Microsoft Evaluation Centre and that gave me 90 days trial. After research, there is a command that you run in CMD that repeats the 90 days trials up to 3 time. That is almost a year. I hope I figure it out in this time. My device does not support W11. Though it was supposed to fully support Win10, that was not the case. It seems that OEM manufacturers only release updates for a fixed period of time, and after that they no longer release updates. What I do not understand is it is Win10 after all. Why would a driver released for RedStone 4 not work on 21H2? [/QUOTE]
