According to Chen Yi's exclusive paradise, recently, a streamlined version of Win 10 system called tiny10 has been completely popular abroad. It is reported that this is an author named NTDEV based on Microsoft's official original version of Win 10 21H2.

tiny10 adopts an extremely streamlined approach, removing a large number of system accessories, leaving only the most core functions. According to the screenshot of the author, it can be seen that the tiny10 image file is only more than 2G, and the C drive only takes up 4.3G after installation.
I also downloaded this system at the first time. The image file is packaged in the form of ISO with a size of 2.5G. It can be installed on the computer through various common system installation methods.
As I expected, tiny10 is so streamlined that only the English language is left, and the installation steps can use the default options. It may be because the system is indeed relatively streamlined, and the time required to install this system is relatively shorter.
After the installation of tiny10 is complete, the desktop looks basically the same as the original system, except for a recycle bin icon.
In order to better test tiny10, you first need to switch the system language to Simplified Chinese. Although the Chinese language package that comes with the system image is simplified, fortunately, Windows supports online download of language packages.
Go to Settings-Time&Language-Language in turn.
Then click "Add a language" on the right to add Simplified Chinese to the system.
However, after I tested it, I found that the system would report an error during the download of the language pack, and the language pack could not be downloaded normally.
In fact, this is because Windows Update-related services are disabled. The solution is to enter the service to find the Windows update service and enable it.
Restart the system once, download the language pack again and it will not report an error. During the operation, it may need to restart several times, so be patient!
The system installation and debugging are completed, let's take a closer look at this system.
First of all, in terms of system occupation, I don’t know if it’s because of my system installation or what’s going on. The system does not only occupy 4G of the C drive as the author said, but it has doubled to 8G.
The system version is Windows 10 LTSC Enterprise Edition, version number 21H2.
Then let’s talk about system components, all applications including the app store, and Defender, which we often disable after installing the system, have been removed, but the Edge browser has been retained.
The remaining system core functions including powershell, CMD, and disk management can be used normally, and no problems have been found.
The system runs a large software like PS without any effort, with a high degree of fluency and good stability.
In the process of adding icons to the tiny10 desktop, I found a strange problem carefully. The system unexpectedly failed to pop up secondary windows including desktop icon settings and right-click file properties.
But if the system is switched back to English, these basic operations are completely normal, and the problem lies in the Chinese system.
Summary Although tiny10 has many advantages over the original system in terms of fluency and size, it has lower requirements for configuration, making this system more suitable for playing its role on old PCs. However, because many components have been simplified and optimized too much, the system may have various potential problems that have been discovered and have not been discovered. You can play casually. If it is a serious occasion, it is recommended to use the official original system honestly.
