Tiny11, a stripped-down version of Windows 11, is here for weaker computers

Windows 11 is notorious for its demanding hardware requirements, which makes the operating system difficult to use on less powerful computers or devices with older but still powerful hardware. There are ways to get around these limitations, but you can't get around Windows 11's massive footprint and plethora of (let's put it mildly) unnecessary components. Therefore, installing stock Windows 11 on unsupported hardware may result in an unsatisfactory experience. This is where Tiny11 comes into play.

Tiny11 is the original Windows 11 version 22H2 stripped down to the essential parts. The mod requires only 8GB of drive space (Windows 11 has over 20GB), runs on systems with 2GB of RAM, and does not require a Trusted Platform Module or Secure Boot. You can even upgrade from Windows 10 to Tiny11.

Tiny11 only provides essential components such as Accessibility Tools, Windows Terminal, Microsoft Store, Calculator, Notepad and Paint. There is no Microsoft Edge, so you can install the browser you want without the operating system asking you to continue using Edge. Additionally, Tiny11 uses an offline account by default, but you can use a Microsoft account.

Overall, the operating system has everything a casual user needs to comfortably do day-to-day computing on any hardware. It consumes fewer resources and does not require the latest hardware. Of course, there are always potential risks associated with installing a modified Windows 11 ISO, so proceed with caution. Another thing to keep in mind is that you still need a valid key to activate Tiny11 - no piracy here. You can download Tiny11 from the Internet Archive. Alternatively, you can use a third-party app such as TIW11 for a similar experience.
