VAW and Win 11 Enterprise LTSC

[agrob]

Good Day,

I reviewed the System Requirements for Veeam Agent for Windows 6 and noticed that Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC is not explicitly mentioned.

For Windows 10, LTSC versions (2015, 2016, 2019, 2021) are clearly listed as supported.
However, for Windows 11, only the standard versions (from 21H2 to 24H2) are mentioned—no reference to LTSC.

https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=60
Microsoft Windows 11 (from version 21H2 to version 24H2)
Microsoft Windows 10 (from version 1909 to version 22H2)
Microsoft Windows 10 Long-Term Servicing Channel (versions 2015, 2016, 2019, 2021)

Given that Windows 11 LTSC is technically very similar to the standard Windows 11 releases (e.g., 21H2), I’m curious why it’s not included in the supported list.

In production environments, I typically avoid deploying software on platforms that aren't officially supported.
Could someone from Veeam clarify whether Windows 11 LTSC is supported or planned to be supported?

Thanks in advance!

Win 11 LTSC is 24H2 - the release is the important bit, not the channel.

Thanks, support told me, that when LTSC is not on the Support Matrix, it is not officially supported. So what is now correct?

Anyone from Veeam who can give more information / insights about LTSC Version of Windows 11? Thanks

Hello,
sorry that we missed this post long time ago... The same question came up internally yesterday and Windows 11 LTSC is also known as Windows 11 IoT and IoT versions are covered with this statement from the system requirements

Windows Embedded / Windows IoT OSes are supported (except for custom builds by certain vendors that do not have components required for Veeam Agent operation)

I also remember a bug with Windows IoT that the agent management said "unsupported OS", but that has been fixed. I don't know whether that was the reason you opened the support case as I cannot see the support case number.

Best regards
Hannes
