Eh, no. LTSC has an extra 13 months and you can get extended support for W10 enterprise, but MS made the pricing very unattractive (support cost basically doubles each year).

But W10 enterprise is going eol for mainstream support in October just like the home, pro and education editions.

I've been preparing our migration to W11 for 18 months now (we combined that with some other changes, otherwise a simple feature update would have sufficed). And no, linux is not an option.

Would you mind sharing why Linux is not an option? I'm planning to switch a fintech team of 20 to Ubuntu and wondering if I missed anything when doing the PoC

Is there lightroom on Linux? That's basically how I earn my bread

It might work in Proton or WINE, or in a VM with a GPU passthrough. But that's not something I'd bet my workflow on. Maybe try Darktable on Windows as an intermediate step, or have a separate work machine.
