Hi, Microsoft just released the latest Windows 10 yesterday. I’m trying to locate the older lightweight version that was found a few months back but isn’t readily available. Do anyone know where the final release is? Have you tried testing it or do you have any tips on downloading it? I need Windows 10 for older machines with limited specs—like 2GB RAM and a Celeron or Pentium processor. The regular version slows things down, so I’m looking for something lighter. Any advice or recommendations would be really helpful!
They are developing it. Check the link below for additional details: https://www.techradar.com/news/windows-1...and-rumors
It's really tough for something like this, even Windows 7 might be too heavy. Have you thought about using a lightweight Linux distribution? Be real, the computer will likely only handle basic tasks like browsing the web and word processing—most Linux setups can do that right out of the box. Linux Mint works well on an old AMD Turion X2 with just 2 GB RAM and a slow 80 GB SSD.
I also use Linux, but my users prefer Microsoft Office while theirs don’t meet their needs. We rely on web services and Google Chrome for memory efficiency. My old laptop runs Windows 10 Pro smoothly with Chrome, but with an i5-650 and 4GB RAM running CentOS or Fedora, only a few web pages open without freezing.
You could run a limited set of applications using Windows 10 S, mainly those available in the Microsoft Store—UWP-based programs. These are generally faster and more stable than x86/x64 versions. For heavier use, consider Windows 10 LTSB or LTSC, which are lighter and less resource-heavy. You can find these from platforms like eBay or Reddit.
Yep i do that... It's true the ltsc it's a good version but it still consume around 1.2 GB in the basic setup system..... And 0.80 GHz in idle... I want to make it use a lil less ram memory maybe between 600 -800mb. I have been trying but have no luck... Any ideas how can I make it more light the system
You may choose a smaller version of Lopatkin's Windows system or Windows Embedded Standard 7, available from Microsoft. The activation code is either Google or MPMVY-PP762-WWVBC-83RXJ-2H7RH.
