> Note: Microsoft does not publish feature updates through Windows Update for devices running Windows IoT Enterprise LTSC.

This sounds like a strict upgrade to consumer-grade windows...

How does an enterprising user get a legal hold on one of those licenses?



It is possible to change your Windows edition using open-source tools:

The other child comments are responding with how to obtain this in a way that is of questionable legality, which I think is not what you are asking. The officially blessed Microsoft way is essentially not available to non-enterprise customers, and it's only available to some subset of enterprise customers from my understanding. And that the cost to acquire the license is quite expensive.
