NTDEV’s ecosystem of third‑party builders has a new, headline‑grabbing member: nano11, a PowerShell‑driven script that pushes the tiny‑Windows idea to its limits by producing an ultra‑small Windows 11 image — the developer says an ISO a little over 2 GB and runnable installs in the sub‑3 GB...

Windows 11’s crash screen may look familiar, but the reasons behind the crash and the route to recovery are rarely simple — this feature walks through practical, verified BSOD (and the newer black crash‑screen) troubleshooting, consolidates the basic steps Guiding Tech outlines, and layers in...

Tiny11’s refreshed Builder recasts Windows 11 as a lean, privacy-minded alternative for users who don’t want Microsoft’s inbox apps, Copilot, or forced Microsoft Account flows—and it does so at a critical moment, as Windows 10 support winds down and millions of PCs face an awkward upgrade...

If your Windows 11 or Windows 10 PC is misbehaving — BSODs, apps refusing to start, unexplained slowdowns, or failed updates — the built‑in duo of DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management) and SFC (System File Checker) will often repair what a reinstall otherwise would. These tools work...

Tiny11’s emergence as a practical way to run a lean, modern Windows 11 on older PCs has suddenly moved from niche hobby to mainstream conversation — and it arrives at a combustible moment: Microsoft’s announced end of mainstream Windows 10 support on October 14, 2025, places millions of users...

Tiny11’s latest builder refresh is a decisive step for power users who want Windows 11 without the inbox app clutter or the newest AI‑first integrations: NTDev’s rewritten PowerShell pipeline can now remove Copilot, the revamped Outlook client, and Microsoft Teams from a rebuilt Windows 11...

If you need a reliable Windows Server web host on-premises or in your datacenter, installing Internet Information Services (IIS) is the obvious first step—and it’s far simpler than many administrators expect. Built into Windows Server but not enabled by default, IIS can be installed...

Tiny11’s new release turns the DIY Windows 11 rebuild into an explicit counterpunch against Microsoft’s in‑box AI push, giving enthusiasts and admins the tools to create a stripped, 25H2‑ready Windows 11 ISO that omits Copilot, the new Outlook client, Teams, and a long roster of inbox apps while...

Windows will often eat tens of gigabytes over time: updates, restore points, index databases and caches can quietly bloat a C: drive, and preinstalled “trial” apps make matters worse — a problem that’s acute on 128 GB laptops and devices with soldered storage. The practical fixes range from...

Last month’s Windows 11 patch KB5063878 triggered a flurry of alarm among power users and IT pros after a narrow set of SSDs began disappearing under heavy write conditions — a regression serious enough that some users experienced irrecoverable data loss. This feature walks through a practical...

Windows 11’s inbox app pile just got a new nemesis: Tiny11’s updated builder can now strip Copilot, the new Outlook client, Teams, and a long roster of built‑ins from a Windows 11 image — and the change is explicitly framed as a “25H2‑ready” rebuild that shrinks install size and prevents much of...

The tiny11builder project has received a significant refresh: the PowerShell-based builder now supports Windows 11 version 25H2 builds, adds explicit removal of Copilot and the new Outlook for Windows client, switches to more efficient recovery compression for smaller ISOs, and introduces...

The FileCoAuth.exe application error — the kind of pop‑up that interrupts work on a shared document or breaks OneDrive/Office co‑authoring — is often resolvable with a short set of practical repairs, but it can also be a symptom of deeper system or security problems that deserve careful...

Windows 11 machines that should shut down but instead loop into a restart are a maddening — yet fixable — class of problems, and the simplest remedies usually live in your power configuration and a few targeted system checks. Background Windows 11 introduced incremental changes to startup...

The moment your Windows PC starts whispering “Low disk space,” it isn’t always because you’ve hoarded videos or forgotten to empty the Recycle Bin—sometimes the culprits are ordinary system and application folders that quietly balloon over time. A recent practical roundup identified the usual...
