Ima say something controversial but, a stripped down Win 11 is perfectly fine. I’ve been using various Linux distros now for a good while and there’s still something just not quite right for non-enthusiasts.
So the simplest way to score a light 11 is making an ISOQ with the official tool, or rufus. Then use the unattended script to rip out everything pre/during install.
The next level up is using something like AtlasOS playbook with WindowsAME tool to rip everything out post-install.
Or you can completely customise your own ISO with (I presume it exists still, nlite or similar).
Or start with the LTSC/IoT offerings.
I really hope Microsoft release their Xbox variant for general install and not just handhelds.
Yes of course, I can answer that for you. But before that, let me talk to you about Raid: Shadow Legends.
