Is this an expected way that Tiny 11 Builder should work? Or should it produce the desired Windows 11 version we pick?

Currently tried installing two times on my laptop Windows 11 Pro version, but it always installs Windows Enterprise Edition.

I tried checking the version installed on my bootable USB drive with this command

dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:F:\sources\install.wim /index:1

And it reports Windows 11 Pro version,
but my computer-installed version is Windows 11 Enterprise.

I am trying out the ARM64 build as a VM with my Macbook Air M1. Just noticed that the IIS feature is missing. Anyone knows how to restore it when the custom build is already installed? Or at least, if someone can point out what to change in the script to avoid removing IIS, that would be great. Thanks in advance!

I think if moving to powershell, you could do a search for prefix app name and remove them so that would work with any win version
And if we use array of prefix, it could do a loop through and remove them

So the previous day I downloaded windows 11 version 22621.525 but the problem is there is no install.wim instead there is install.esd
so I replaces the install.wim(s) in batch code into install.esd but when I ran the code dism couldn't access the image

So I saw a youtuber - I think it was DeBaur maybe? At any rate they will talking about this tool and I mostly know what I am doing but I am stuck at step SKU - please advise ...

How can we go about getting a build that has just start menu, settings, explorer, and the ability to install Appx, and msu? Ie the image should be manually serviceable, no wsus, no store, no apps, etc.

Hi! For Microsoft Edge total removal, you may refer to https://github.com/AveYo/fox/blob/main/Edge_Removal.bat. Hope it helps!

Before anything, thank you! I'm really satisfied with your work here.

While I used Tiny11, I found some stuff that doesn't work as expected:

• Changing Windows language to anything other than English breaks some program windows. If you try opening the settings for programs like HWiNFO, MSI Afterburner or 7-Zip, nothing happens. Not even a blink. Changing the language back solves this.

• I use an Xbox One wireless controller with my PC and its Guide button doesn't work at all. I guess it's because of the Xbox programs that got removed. I'll try restoring them.

Whenever I launch the .bat file and press enter the thing just force closes me and i cannot type the ISO mounted drive letter.

I'm using the noreq b2 version, but i'm having constants BSOD.

16gb Ram
AMD FX-6300
RTX 2060

What can i do to fix it ?

I don't think these 2 things cause huge issues at least in terms of telemetry, and to my knowledge they're not super big either so they shouldn't cause a dramatic increase of disk space usage.
I'm blind and would love to try out the Tiny Windows versions on some of my hardware, but the unavailability of Narrator makes it that much harder, given there's no speech in the installer and the installed system in that case.

This project has potential,
unfortunately the creator has abandoned it...

For example, if you want the sound recorder for some reason, you can have it download with the Tiny11 installation, or if you want, you can remove the command prompt just to be funny, you can.

How to remove Cortana

You can also remove Cortana from Command Prompt (admin) using the “winget uninstall –id 9NFFX4SZZ23L” command.

After running the tiny11 creator 22621.525.bat file an error message that oscdimg can't be found is displayed. This is on Windows 10 Home. Thanks for creating this utility.

I feel mad stupid but got everything downloaded and ready to go and when I ran the proper bat the CMD window opens up flawlessly and asks for the drive letter for the ISO which is mounted then instantly the CMD window closed with no log or error.

Will future and current Microsoft Windows 11 ISO images always work or should people expect problems with the current or future releases?

Which, I'm assuming, is why you mention :

"As of now, only build 22621.525 (the one that can be downloaded from the Microsoft website), 22621.1265 (the latest public build) and 25300 (latest Insider build as of now) are supported."

In the description @ntdevlabs
In you're spare time can the public expect you to combat this, with updates, should such future \ current ISO's have issues?

can I run this on linux?

Local Security Authority (LSA) protection is a mechanism that prevents unsigned drivers and addons to be loaded on the local security authority. Windows Security is currently complaining of this issue in both of my Tiny11 computers, and enabling it and rebooting still does not clear the warning.

All you have to do is delete

Microsoft Edge
Microsoft Edge Update
Microsoft Edge WebView

from

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Hey y'all! Thanks NtDev for the Tiny11.

I'm looking for a list containing everithing is removed/changed and if it can be something else changed or trimmed in the script

Hope someone can help me. Thanks!

Title says it, more of a question than an actual issue, I'm considering running this or making my own via NTLITE, is it possible to make an NTLITE preset that generates (mostly) the same tiny11 iso?

please support the last version Windows 11 build 10.0.22621.1105

I can boot from the ISO created with the tool but I get an error ( I assume when the installer launches) that the install.wim is missing, and the computer than restarts automatically.

As seen on pending "issues", here is how to remove Cortana completely on Win11 (on a running system).

Open PowerShell, and execute:

Get-AppxPackage *549981* | Remove-AppxPackage

Needs to be adapted to your offline .BAT script

(PS: Cortana sometimes changes its folder name so the reason for the wildcard. Your script already has a line for that, but it is not the current Cortana Appx name anymore. Although the sequence 549981 remais, the end of the string now differs.)

The above command works (at least on any running Win11) And the Cortana Removal is instantaneous;

Essentially the title. Whether I use the magnifying glass bar, or the windows bar, I can not search for any programs whatsoever. I'll attach a small video demonstrating what I mean here.

If anyone knows why this is happening (probably me being dumb), I'd really appreciate it!

Please add log in current dirctory, because dism logs is not verbose. i have errors but dont'know which...

Thanks for the constructor. Everything works perfectly!

The original file from Microsoft has a valid cert chain all the way up to the root CA which is trusted.
This file has a valid cert chain up to the root CA, which is a different one and untrusted.

I don't think I have to explain the risk involved in running a file like that.

What will happen if you feed this tool a Windows 10 image? I would've treated my ISO of Windows 10 S 1709 with this, but it's probably not going to work.

Hey guys i had tiny 11 installed on my hard drive along with Ubuntu, but yesterday i messed something up and now my bootmgr file is missing so i cannot boot into windows, I am seeking help about this and want someone to guide me on how can I repair it, i also have tiny 11 on my bootable usb but i am not aware how do I boot into windows recovery since there is no option like that in the windows setup, i saw couple of tutorials but there isn't a option saying "repair windows" so can you guys please help me? and btw i can boot into Ubuntu and do things.

Let's say you don't want to reinstall every app and games you already have in your system drive as well as your other drives. Is there a way to reinstall your windows 11 installation with a tiny 11 build without having to delete these files and software?

c:\scratchdir.... - Access is denied.

Currently, you must manually remove Cortana with Powershell :

Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.549981C3F5F10 | Remove-AppxPackage

I just constantly get Error: 15601. After it finishes it doesnt generate a file (probably due to the error)

Looking at the instructions, which seem simple enough, I'm having a problem getting from step 6 to step 7. Is there a step that should be there that I'm missing or is there an error in the script that's causing me not to get an ISO file out. What I do get it a "Tiny 11" folder on my C drive but that's it and obviously, that's not an ISO file that I can turn into a bootable drive.

it just says my pc cant run it as it doesnt meet the requirerments, sorry if its a stupid question

At first, I appreciate your work 👏

But removing application from image does make any difference ?
I mean, There is some debloat scripts, for removing bloated applications...

Here is some popular debloat scripts, just in case anyone curious...

Issue description

The script "tiny11 creator 22621.525.bat" exits with error when using ISO downloaded from Microsoft website.
Root cause:
There is no install.wim file found in the \sources folder.
ESD is the compressed format and must be converted to install.wim before the script can execute.
Windows 11 ISO file downloaded from website - "https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11" on 05 March 2023.
Windows 11 ISO build is 10.0.22621.525

Log

Please enter the drive letter for the Windows 11 image: E

Can't find Windows OS Installation files in the specified Drive Letter..

Please enter the correct DVD Drive Letter..
The system cannot find the batch label specified - Stop

D:\Downloads\tiny11builder>

Resolution

Convert the Install.esd format to Install.wim by running the additional command:

Dism /Export-image /SourceImageFile:c:\tiny11\sources\install.esd /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:c:\tiny11\sources\install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity

essentially i tried running the tool in my downloads folder and after it finished making the image and was attempting to copy it back to it's folder, it errored that a path called "C:\Users\My" did not exist and then failed, wasting all of time that i spent waiting for it.

my user folder is named "My Name" which leads me to believe the space in my user folder broke it.

also i seem like the only person that can right more than 2 sentences in the issue section of this repo, sorry about that man

I'm currently considering downgrading my os to tiny11 but there is a lot of applications installed on my laptop, most of them are games, multimedia software, and python packages for programming. Is there a way to downgrade to tiny11 without comprimising these things or is this the equivalent of reinstalling everything from scratch?

I used the tiny11 creator 22621.525.bat to make the build using the ISO from the Microsoft website Win11_22H2_English_x64v1.iso
which is 22621.525 build.

The machine SHUTS DOWN after the script copies the mounted ISO's contents???
To be able to continue with the build process I have to edit the bat file to start the process from line 32 (echo Getting image information:)
After that, the script created the desired ISO.

Hello, after running all steps as administrator around the end part of the process i get this error and the iso file is not created. Please help fix this issue.
