Essential features like Windows Update, Microsoft Store, printers, or networking components are often permanently broken or removed [1].
Significantly faster boot times and reduced lag on old hardware due to the removal of background services, visual effects, and pre-installed apps [1].
Extremely low RAM consumption (often under 500MB-1GB at idle) and reduced CPU load [1].
Many hardware drivers are stripped to save space, leading to functional issues (no audio, no Wi-Fi) [1].
(How much RAM and what processor)
(e.g., slow performance, out of storage)
A very small footprint, often taking up just a few gigabytes of storage, ideal for tiny SSDs or hard drives [1]. Cons (Why It's Risky)
I can offer better, safer alternatives than a modified version of Windows.
