tiny11builder

Scripts to build a trimmed-down Windows 11 image.

This is a script to automate the build of a streamlined Windows 11 image, similar to tiny11. My main goal is to use only Microsoft utilites like DISM, and nothing external. The only executable included is oscdimg.exe, which is provided in the Windows ADK and it s used to create bootable ISO images. Also included is an unattended answer file, which is used to bypass the MS account on OOBE and to deploy the image with the /compact flag. It's open-source, so feel free to add or remove anything you want! Feedback is also much appreciated.

As of now, only build 2262.525 (the one that can be downloaded from the Microsoft website) and 22621.1255 (the latest public build) are supported.

Instructions:

1. Download Windows 11 22621.1255 from UUPDump or 22621.525 from the Microsoft website (https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11)
2. Mount the downloaded ISO image using Windows Explorer.
3. For .1255, run tiny11 builder as admininstrator. For .525, use the aply-named script (also as administrator)
4. Select the drive letter where the image is mounted (only the letter, no colon (:))
5. Select the SKU that you want the image to be based.
6. Sit back and relax :)
7. When the image is completed, you will see it in the folder where the script was extracted, with the name tiny11.iso

And that's pretty much it!

Known issues:

1. Microsoft Teams (personal) and Cortana are still here. If you find a way to remove them before I find one, feel free to help!
2. Although Edge is removed, the icon and a ghost of its taskbar pin are still available. Also, there are some remaints in the Settings. But the app in itself is deleted.
3. The script is rather unflexible, as in only the builds specified can be modified. This is because with each new build Microsoft also updates the inbox apps included.

Once again, if you have any proposals on how to fix these issues, feel free to help!
