New Tiny11 Builder makes it easier than ever to declutter Windows 11

Developer NTDEV has released a significantly redesigned version of Tiny11 Builder, a tool designed to help users create slimmed-down, custom installations of Windows 11. The new release replaces the previous PowerShell-based interface with a modern WinUI 3 desktop application, improving usability and performance. The tool allows users to remove unwanted Microsoft apps and bloatware while maintaining core OS functionality like Windows Update and Microsoft Defender. While the builder simplifies the process of creating a lightweight OS, the developer warns that these custom images are not officially supported by Microsoft. Users are cautioned that aggressive configurations, particularly the 'Core' version, may remove critical features or recovery tools. Furthermore, while the tool can help bypass hardware requirements or enable local account creation, these features are not guaranteed to work on all builds. Users are advised to exercise caution and use the software at their own risk.
