Tiny11 is based on Windows 11 version 25H2, offering a clean and responsive computing experience by removing unnecessary apps and services found in the standard Windows installation.

Tiny11 requires approximately 8GB of disk space, compared to the 20GB typically used by a full Windows 11 setup. If you want an even more lightweight option, Tiny11 core is more than twice as small as a normal Windows 11 ISO, while sacrificing serviceability. As such, it is more geared towards those who want something for a VM or a testbed environment.

Tiny11 includes essential tools like Calculator, Notepad, Paint, and access to the Microsoft Store, allowing users to install additional apps as needed. It's the perfect choice for systems with limited resources, virtual machines, or for anyone who simply wants a cleaner Windows experience.
