Convert Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC to ThinOS
From ThinOS 10.x 2602, devices running Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC (WIE) can now be seamlessly migrated directly to ThinOS 10, significantly simplifying conversion workflows. This enhancement removes the need for transitional steps through ThinOS 9.x and streamlines fleet-wide deployments. Administrators can use WMS to perform the migration using the updated tools, packages, and automated processes introduced in this release.
