# Tiny11 Builder

Build a smaller Windows 11 ISO with a native WinUI app. Download an official
Windows image or use your own, choose what to remove, and create your ISO.

## Download

[**Get the latest version**](https://github.com/ntdevlabs/tiny11builder/releases/latest)

Choose **x64** for Intel/AMD PCs or **ARM64** for Windows on ARM. Extract the
entire ZIP and open `Tiny11Builder.exe`. Administrator approval is required.

## Choose your build

| Mode | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| Tiny11 | Removes bundled apps and unwanted features while keeping updates, Defender and recovery. |
| Tiny11 Core | Trims further by removing servicing and recovery support and disabling Defender. |
| Custom | Choose individual apps, components, features and services to remove or keep. |

Turbo mode speeds up image processing. Interrupted builds can resume from saved
progress after the image is committed or compressed. Core and component-store
removals automatically use the legacy Windows installer.

**Core cannot be updated or serviced. Protected Custom removals can break
Windows. Test your ISO in a VM before installing it.**
