If you own a PC that doesn’t meet the minimum requirements to run Windows 11 or has limited resources, then you should try Tiny11 2311 (Windows 11 Lite Version). It’s a great alternative to Ghost Spectre Windows 11.
What is Tiny11?
Tiny11 2311 is a compact or stripped version of the official Windows 11 Pro 23H2 edition, modified by NTdev. It is designed to run on less powerful computers, requiring only 8GB of storage and 2GB of RAM.
It also supports devices with ARM64 architecture (mobile devices, including Raspberry Pi 4, other WoA devices, or Apple M1/M2 VMs).
The latest version of Tiny11 installs Windows 11 version 23H2 and bypasses various system requirements which include security checks, hardware requirements, internet connection, and Microsoft account.
It has cut out a ton of bloatware and includes only basic apps like Microsoft Store to download apps, and other Microsoft apps like Calculator, Notepad, Paint, Windows Terminal, and others. It doesn’t have a Microsoft Edge browser that users can download and install separately.
Tiny11 is based on a copy of Windows 11 from Microsoft and users can upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11 Lite Version as well. The good thing is, that you can activate the Windows installation copy using a digital license and product key as well.
Download and Install Tiny11 (Windows 11 Lite Version)
You can head over to this page on archive.org and download the Tiny11 ISO image. For ARM64 architecture, you can download the iso from here.
Using the iso image, you need to create bootable installation media of Tiny11 or Windows 11 Lite version. Follow the instructions in this video.
Once the installation media is ready, follow the instructions on how to install Windows 11 23H2. The process of installing Tiny11 is the same as well.
