      I'm with Jared. Current unless you have a strong reason to be on the lagging release.

        Thanks, @JaredBusch @scottalanmiller - I don't have a specific reason for LTSB, I wanted to make sure I didn't overlook something.

          If you have to migrate users desktops, download the User State Migration Tools (USMT) and find a tutorial on scanstate and loadstate. You can keep it really simple, or get pretty involved depending on your needs.

              Make sure you update your Central Store with the latest Windows 10 1703 administrative templates.

                  Why Windows 10 Enterprise? Is there a feature there you need? Lots of expense there.

                      Oh? What's changed?

                      I know Enterprise used to be part of Software Assurance, but they broke that out a while ago. Enterprise can be purchased directly through VLK as a one time purchase, subscription not required.

                      That said - I had Win 7 and Win 8(.1) throughout my organization. Moving to Windows 10 was free, and the one VLK SA license I had for a previous Windows Pro machine granted me access to the Pro media so I could use images to roll it out.

                      So I'm curious, had you purchased Enterprise previously? or carried SA on all licenses before the SA/Enterprise split (and get grandfathered into getting both licenses?)

                      Or are there new licensing setup I'm unaware of?
