Breaking Windows

So you want to stick with Windows but don't want to give any money to Microsoft? Look no further.

If you prefer legacy Windows 10, use Tiny10 by NTDEV. It should be noted that some applications will have trouble running on Tiny10, but work perfectly fine on TIny 11; I suspect this is because of applications being updated to support Windows 11 and being sunsetted for Windows 10, rather then NTDEV's Tiny versions.

If you prefer modern Windows 11, use Tiny11 by NTDEV.

After you've installed Tiny10 or Tiny11 onto your system make sure to activate it using Microsoft Activation Scripts (MAS).

Next, make sure to remove any and all AI "features" in Windows 11 using the Remove Windows AI script.

Finally, you'll need to install a browser to download any applications you want to use. Luckily, the Microsoft store will automatically be installed on your Tiny10 or Tiny11 system. I suggest downloading something small, like Microsoft Edge, and then downloading the installer for your choice of browser; but if your preferred browser is already in the Microsoft store, there's nothing stopping you from installing it straight from the store.
