I'm going to have to upgrade to 10 on my next pc build (currently using 8.1 + Classic Shell). LTSB sounds like exactly what I want... no telemetry, no Cortana, no Microsoft Store, no forced updates. What are the downsides to running it, and is there any way I can configure plain Pro (or whatever) to be what I want?

Can all installation medias install all versions of Windows 10, and you just activate it with the pertinent code? Or does each version require a separate installation media? I.E. if I'm gonna install enterprise, will a regular installation media for home/pro do the trick, or do I specifically need an enterprise installation media?
