And then (now) there is Windows version,"Tiny 11".
I have it installed to a separate SSD on this very PC. I can access it via the F-12 key on boot up.
It IS definitely much smaller on the HD than the regular version of Windows 11/Pro/64 that I'm on now.
There have been two versions of "Tiny 11". The first one I tried had the System Restore totally disabled (removed).
That was a deal breaker for me, as I use System Restore a lot.
However the second version of "Tiny 11" that I downloaded and installed, still has System Restore working properly.
That's the version I have on the little Crucial 120GB SSD, that I can access on this PC.
So for anyone, having any of the weird and numerous problems with Windows 11 from MS, try a download of "Tiny 11".
From the Tiny 11 web site:
tiny11 is finally here!
Based off of Windows 11 Pro 22H2, tiny11 has everything you need for a comfortable computing experience without the bloat and clutter of a standard Windows installation.
It just uses around 8GB of space compared to the 20+GB that a standard installation does.
You can upgrade from Windows 10 and install it on unsupported devices.
Playing around with different OS's and different versions, is my Hobby.
It's quite a come-down from playing Pool and racing Motor Cycles, but in today's economy, it's cheaper, and safer.
I've not studied "Services" yet to see what all might have been removed, or disabled.
Merry Christmas, Everyone,
