- Tiny11 ISO has been updated with version 24H2 of Windows 11.
- You can download the Tiny11 for Windows 11 24H2 from the Internet Archive website.
UPDATED 11/18/2024: The creator (@NTDEV_) of Tiny11 has updated the ISO file to install Windows 11 24H2. Tiny11 is a custom ISO image of Windows 11 (not supported by Microsoft) created with the open-source OSDBuilder tool. It aims to declutter the installation by removing everything unnecessary, such as default apps, services, and features, to install the operating system on low-end unsupported hardware.
The last version of the image was based on version 24H2, and now @NTDEV has updated the ISO file to perform a smaller installation of Windows 11 24H2. Although Tiny11 strips out many default elements to create a lightweight version of the operating system that takes less space on the hard drive, everything works as expected, including Windows Update, activation, and the essential included apps. It also maintains many security features, such as Microsoft Defender Antivirus and Firewall, Core isolation, Data encryption, and more. In addition, the installation also removes Microsoft Edge, meaning you will have to bring your preferred web browser after finishing the setup.
In addition to the lightweight version of Windows 11, there’s also a new image for Windows 10 22H2.
It’s important to note that while Tiny11 provides an alternative method to install Windows 11 (or 10) without all the unnecessary clutter, it’s still not an image supported by Microsoft. You must also consider the privacy implications of installing an operating system that a third party has modified. You should only use Tiny11 if you know what you’re doing. You have been warned.
You can download the Tiny11 for Windows 11 24H2 from the Internet Archive website and use these instructions to perform a clean installation using Tiny11.
The developer also makes available the Tiny11 Builder script, which is a tool that allows you to create a custom ISO file for Windows 11, which you can use with any version of the operating system. The idea of the script makes the process of modifying the Windows 11 ISO file more transparent, so you don’t have to download a modified version of the ISO file thinking about what other changes another person may have applied.
Alternatively, instead of using the Tiny11 ISO file, you can use this trick to perform a clean install of Windows 11 without any bloatware. You can also use this tool to remove all the unnecessary apps and services after setting up a new operating system installation.
