Instructions to download and install Windows 11 compact and lightweight Tiny11 for low-profile machines

47 views

Windows 11 promises to bring many new features, a beautiful interface, and smoother stability than previous versions of Windows.

But even though Windows 11 offers a major upgrade, it’s still very resource-intensive and can render old PCs unusable as smoothly as before.

The slimmed-down version of Windows 11 called Tiny11 is optimized and reduced in size to help you experience Windows 11 on low-spec PCs and laptops.

Specifically, Tiny11 was created based on Windows 11 Pro 22H2 and is only 3 GB in size, while the Windows 11 ISO download is a whopping 5.1 GB.

This miniature version includes basic functions such as calculator, notepad and drawing. It also maintains the Microsoft Store, so users can install any other Microsoft software they need.

The system comes with a local account by default, and an online Microsoft account can also be used.

However, as you might expect, most of the resource-hungry animations have been removed from this release, including some user-favorite app opening animations.

You also won’t find other standard Windows apps, including Windows Defender and Xbox services.

However, removing them also means that Tiny11 will be faster, lighter, and smoother than Microsoft’s original version of Windows 11.
