Good luck

I have a Linux Mint USB ready to go if it'll just let me run from that, but I also downloaded a memtest iso. I have to get ready and leave for work soon, so I'll try to do this tomorrow assuming my PC doesn't crash and burn when I try to start it up.

I with I had discovered this tool a long time ago. tiny11.-.nov24 is a Power Shell script that creates a highly debloated Windows 11 installation iso. You just mount a regular windows iso file with Windows Explorer and run the Power Shell script and it does all the work creating a tiny11.iso you can use to install a debloated version of Windows 11. I just tried it and when I clicked "Installed apps", there were only 14 apps installed.

It will run forever but I generally just stop after about 20m to see any errors.

After installing memtest86+, it show up after rebooting as one of the boot entries.
