Windows 11 Tiny is a lightweight and more scaled-down version of a well-known operating system by Microsoft developed mainly for older computers.
Low requirements
Compared to a standalone edition, this one does not require desktops or laptops to have hardware components with advanced specifications. It is possible to install the software on more basic PCs with its key features suitable for both productivity tasks and entertainment. Users can remove non-essential apps like Cortana or Edge to occupy less space on hard drives. Thus, there will be more room for personal utilities and files.
Being stripped of unnecessary background processes, the Tiny 11 provides quite fast and smooth performance. You can start the system in a short time, launch applications in a matter of seconds and complete various assignments without freezing issues.
Limits
Still, it is worth noting that there are certain limitations that come with given advantages. To be exact, there is no Microsoft Store, Defender or Update in the list of pre-installed services. Such lack of features may cause inconvenience when it comes to downloading desired utilities, automatically detecting files for malware and maintaining all vital components up-to-date.
And last but not least, taken into account that this system is not official, it is not completely safe to use in terms of privacy.
