Title: De-Bloated Windows 11 Build Runs on 2GB of RAM
Post by: littleman on February 04, 2023, 08:10:02 PM
Tiny11 uses 8GB of disk space, compared to 20GB+ for the standard install.

It will probably be taken down soon.

I looked at that trying to figure a way to load it in Crostini linux.

>Russian dolls.

I like nested useful stuff, yes.

What I **need** is to somehow take a disk image (that's a guess) of Win 10 running Quickbooks 16 and port it to a 'forever' machine.  Quickbooks is subscription-only cloud based now.  QB16 does everything I need, but if my old machine dies I'm hosed.  Then I need to see if I can make Moneydance replace QB16.
