nano11

A PowerShell script named Nano11 can collapse a full Windows 11 installation image down to a tiny, bootable ISO and produce installed systems that weigh in at roughly 2–3 GB, but it does so by deliberately cutting out large swathes of the operating system — including servicing, security...

I installed Windows 11 from a nano‑sized 2.4 GB ISO and the finished system used just 8.36 GB on disk — a result that compresses a typical Windows 11 footprint to roughly two‑thirds smaller than a regular install, accomplished with the community project Nano11 Builder and a few post‑install...

NTDEV’s latest builder shrinks a full Windows 11 ISO down to a reported 2.29 GB by surgically removing nearly everything most users expect from a modern desktop OS — from Xbox and Solitaire to Windows Update and Windows Defender — producing an extremely compact, intentionally unserviceable image...

Microsoft pushed a busy week of changes across Windows 11 and the broader Windows ecosystem: September’s Patch Tuesday landed with a handful of quality fixes and a long-requested calendar clock return, Microsoft released ISOs for Windows 11 version 25H2 to Insiders, the SSD “bricking” saga...

Microsoft’s Windows week delivered a heavy mix of stabilization, incremental feature rollouts, and operational housekeeping: official ISOs for Windows 11 version 25H2 are now available to Windows Insiders, Patch Tuesday delivered several quality fixes (including a restored clock in the calendar...

Nano11 is the kind of geeky engineering stunt that makes you admire the technical craft while quietly reminding you why operating systems are usually built with more than minimalism in mind. Background NTDEV—the developer known for the Tiny11 project—has published Nano11 Builder, a...

Nano11’s demo-sized ISO and sub‑3GB installed footprints are headline‑grabbing — but they’re the result of deliberate surgical removals and heavy compression that trade serviceability, security, and general compatibility for raw minimalism. Background / Overview Windows 11’s default footprint...

NTDEV’s tiny11 project spawned a new contender: Nano11 — a community-made script that strips Windows 11 to the bone and, in one recent demonstration, produced an ISO file reported at just 2.28 GB and an installed system that was reduced to roughly 3.25 GB after aggressive compression and...

NTDEV’s Tiny11 already rewired how power users think about Windows 11; now a new set of community tools is taking that work even further — and raising fresh questions about safety, supportability, and the line between useful customization and outright breakage. The latest headline-grabber is a...

NTDEV’s new Nano11 Builder takes the Windows‑11 debloat movement from pragmatic trimming to experimental minimalism, producing bootable ISOs and installed images measured in single‑digit gigabytes by surgically removing inbox apps, servicing infrastructure, and even parts of the Windows...

A stripped-down, community-built version of Windows 11 has pushed the limits of what the OS can be when every nonessential component is removed: tiny installation media, dramatic runtime compression, and the deliberate sacrifice of serviceability and security to reach an astonishingly small...

NTDEV’s community ecosystem has produced yet another extreme take on Windows 11: nano11, a script-driven rebuilder that pares a stock Windows 11 image down to astonishingly small sizes — an ISO reportedly just over 2 GB and an installed footprint under 3 GB when combined with compression — by...

NTDEV’s latest build tools push Windows‑shrinking projects into new territory: a purpose‑built “nano11” pipeline that trims a Windows 11 ISO to the absolute minimum, producing ISOs and installed footprints measured in single‑digit gigabytes — and, in developer demos, as small as a 2.29 GB ISO...

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...
