There are many third-party lite versions of Windows 11, and many people are not sure what has been modified to the ISO when using it. In fact, for today's large-capacity hard disks, it seems that it is not necessary to reduce some of the volume. The reason for streamlining is mainly to remove some built-in applications, and not to be overly streamlined, so as not to cause various incurable problems in use.
Yesterday I saw an open source project "tiny11builder" on a hub, the author has just updated, it can be very convenient to streamline Windows11, the code is open source, and the tools used are also from Microsoft official, don't worry about private goods. In addition to removing some components, an "answer file" is included that is used to bypass the Microsoft account on the OOBE.
Using "tiny11builder", the following components are removed:
Clipchamp
News
Weather
Xbox
GetHelp
GetStarted
Office Hub
Solitaire
PeopleApp
PowerAutomate
ToDo
Alarms
Mail and Calendar
Feedback Hub
Maps
Sound Recorder
Your Phone
Media Player
QuickAssist
Internet Explorer
Tablet PC Math
Edge（该脚本存在的问题：尽管删除了 Edge，但“设置”中仍有一些残留，但是应用程序本身已被删除。）
OneDrive Here's how to use tiny11builder. Since the Powershell script is used, the default policy of the system is to block the run, you need to run Powershell as an administrator and enter the following command:
Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted After you are ready, the following tutorial begins:
(1) Extract "tiny11builder", right-click on the file "tiny11maker.ps1" → run it with PowerShell.
Download the official original Windows 11 image in advance (click to download), the following prompt asks you to enter the drive letter of the Windows 11 image: just double-click the ISO image, and the system will automatically open it as File Explorer. For example, in my system, the drive letter is E, so I type "E" in the image below (don't enter a colon), and press enter to confirm to enter the next step.
This step shows the various versions in the ISO image, and the ISO image I use includes: Home Edition, Home Single Language Edition, Education Edition, Professional Edition, Professional Education Edition, and Professional Workstation Edition. I've chosen the Pro version for processing, so I'm typing in "4". You can choose the version you want to process based on your needs. After press enter to confirm, wait for the image reduction to be completed, and automatically generate an image named "tiny11.iso" in the same directory as the script tiny11maker.ps1.
The picture below shows the production process, just wait......
After the production is completed, as shown in the figure below, press enter to finish.
The use of this script only streamlines some components, and the ISO size is not significantly reduced, from 6.52GB to 6.09GB. The whole process took a short time, I took about 10 minutes (depending on the computer configuration).
