4.4.5 Installation
Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB is preinstalled at B&R on a suitable data storage medium (64-bit: at least
20 GB). When switched on for the first time, the system runs through the out-of-box experience (OOBE), which
allows different settings to be made (e.g. language, region, keyboard, computer name, username, etc.).
Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB can be installed on APC3100 and PPC3100 devices in UEFI or legacy
BIOS mode. In UEFI mode, the data storage medium containing the Windows partition is formatted with a GUID
Partition Table (GPT) file system. For other drives, it is possible to use either the GPT or Master Boot Record
(MBR) file format. A GPT drive can have up to 128 partitions.
Note that when backing up and restoring the installation, the GPT file system must be supported by the software
used.
4.4.6 Drivers
The operating system contains all drivers required for operation. If an older driver version is installed, the latest
version can be downloaded and installed from the B&R website (
). It is important to ensure
that "Unified Write Filter (UWF)" is disabled.
Information:
Necessary drivers must be downloaded from the B&R website, not from manufacturer websites.
4.4.7 Activation
Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB must be activated like its predecessor Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2015
LTSB. This takes place at B&R.
The activation status can be checked in the Control Panel:
Figure 64: System properties
Activation carried out by B&R is supported by special B&R extensions in the operating system and theoretically not
lost when the hardware is changed (e.g. replacement of components in the event of repair) or when the system is
reinstalled, unlike Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2015 LTSB (Microsoft reserves the right to make technical changes
without notice).
Information:
It is not required to enter a product key for activation.
