The makers of Tiny11, a simplified version of Windows 11, have updated their Tiny11 Builder tool. This tool helps you alter and personalize your own simplified Windows 11.
The new version lets you create Windows 11 ISOs that do not have telemetry. Telemetry is a built-in feature from Microsoft that collects and sends data automatically for monitoring and analyzing your system.
Turning off telemetry can improve your privacy, reduce the resources needed to operate Windows 11, and give you more control over your data.
Tiny11 Builder is a free script that you run on your device to reduce Windows 11’s size for better performance.
You can obtain the Tiny11 script from the creator’s GitHub page. You can either copy and paste the code into a Windows PowerShell window or download the script file (which ends with .ps1), right-click on it, and choose ‘Run with PowerShell.’
PowerShell is a tool from Microsoft that helps automate tasks and processes on the Windows operating system.
The simplest method to locate it is to search for it using Windows Search. It will also automatically open if you use the second method mentioned above.
How does Tiny11 Builder improve Windows 11’s performance?
Using Tiny11 Builder lets your system employ Microsoft tools to eliminate non-essential items that you normally couldn’t remove.
The process is more complex than just downloading a Microsoft ISO from its official site. However, according to Neowin, the final IOS image is clean and works well.
It also helps you avoid needing a Microsoft account and certain system requirements.
The latest version of the Tiny11 Builder script, which disables telemetry, was released on GitHub on April 29, 2024, by its developers NDTEV on X.
This is a well-liked choice among those who have similar worries about the amount of user data that is gathered and shared with Microsoft.
According to the creators’ GitHub repository, NDTEV appears to have intentions to add further capabilities to Tiny11 Builder.
Upcoming plans call for improved language identification, increased control over which Windows 11 features to retain and remove, and perhaps even a completely new user interface.
In terms of installing software on your PC, this is perhaps a step above “beginner,” but if it interests you, I’d say give it a shot.
I envision a rise in the use of tools and solutions like this with Microsoft’s recent barrage of advertisements, and I hope Tiny11 Builder remains open-source for the benefit of all of us.
Enhancing User Control Over Windows 11 Features
The Tiny11 Builder tool not only reduces the size of Windows 11 but also empowers users to customize their experience by selecting which features to retain or remove. This level of control ensures a tailored operating system that suits individual preferences and requirements.
Simplifying Windows 11 Installation with Enhanced Language Identification
Future updates to Tiny11 Builder promise improved language identification capabilities, streamlining the installation process for users worldwide. This enhancement ensures that language settings match user preferences from the outset, enhancing accessibility and usability for a diverse user base.
Promoting Open-Source Solutions for Privacy-Conscious Users
As concerns about data privacy continue to grow, tools like Tiny11 Builder represent a broader trend towards open-source solutions that prioritize user privacy and control. By leveraging community-driven development and transparency, these solutions offer a viable alternative to proprietary software, empowering users to take control of their digital footprint.
