Im not upgrading my OS, and im not building or buying a new computer.

Im just going to ride it out until it explodes. the tech market is so messed up right now that I'll end up paying more than what I did for my Machine in 2019, and it will be comparatvely, nowhere near as much as a performance jump as when I made the last switch from my 2012 build.

If you absolutely must use windows

Download the Pro ISO from windows.

Use MicroWin to create an iso without tpm requirements and with offline installation

Use MAS and use only the Enterprise edition. You might need to upgrade to Professional first.

Then use WindowsDebloater to tailor it to your liking.

Unfortunately that requires a full reinstall, I wish there was a way to upgrade from 10 pro to 10 enterprise.

[–] randombullet@programming.dev 2 points 12 hours ago

Yeah there's no foolproof way to do a general upgrade. Wiping is the easiest way to bypass the tpm requirement.

My wife’s HP Spectre something laptop became twice as fast when I reinstalled it and removed all the cruft.
