Half this guide is disabling unwanted features that come as a result of choosing Windows 10 home.
Why not run LTSC 2021and then MAS instead?
As a benefit you get access to group policy, which I would argue is not an unwanted feature if you want greater control over the OS. Lots of options are locked there.
MAS?
Doesn’t that do graphics in software? I suppose for optimal software you’d need hardware acceleration for that, or does libvirtd pass that through automatically these days?
honestly, i don’t know. if you’re talking about virtIO with 3d acceleration, i can’t make it function. if you’re talking about gpu passthrough by adding a pci hardware, that’s an option that i have not tried yet.
Hmmh. I mean I mostly play old games and they tend to work better in Wine/Proton anyway, so I don’t have a virtualized Windows. I ran into some annoyances with other operating systems though, since most mundane desktop environments do lavish graphics these days. Or I’d randomly watch a Youtube video in a guest system and that’d use a lot of CPU with a recent codec and full HD or more… I guess all of this really depends on what people do with their virtualized machines, though.
Virtio works jisy fine.
how did you configure it? iirc vgpus in Linux are pretty bad, virgl is pretty good but it doesn’t have a guest driver for windows
