Worth a tiny look?
Having retired some years ago, I was not overly pleased when Microsoft announced that Windows 11 would not run on older PCs, rendering my well-specified desktop PC and laptop obsolete.
I recently came across tiny11, a “lite” version of Windows 11 available via GitHub, which comes without extras such as Edge, Teams and Cortana, and with the TPM requirement removed. You still need a valid Windows licence key, and interestingly the standard Windows Update works normally. I installed it on an aged 2007 HP laptop. It runs reasonably quickly and seems stable.
How about an assessment of tiny11 from PC Pro?
