Windows 11

Yes, the original project which Chrome is derived from. The open source project is the base for all chromium based browsers. I've been using MV3 with ubo lite and didn't face any missed ads on websites I use. Brave already includes ad blocker within the browser which can be customized to add more lists.
You can even disable it and opt for MV2 based UBO to get full adblock capabilities.
ubo lite actually uses more disk storage to ship more inbox filter rules. You can select more of them if needed. Didn't even miss blocking of ads with ubo lite. In Brave Browser you can select aggressive adblocking with best experience on mobile and improve page loading speeds.

Thanks for the tip. I googled it and downloaded a copy. Let me check it out on a virtual machine.

Excuse me. Did you say you do NOT block ads? Everybody blocks ads. They're impossible to deal with.

Without adblocking i will not browse anything. Brave and few others already includes adblockers within the browser. With MV3 based ubo lite I rarely saw any ads even with limited rules. Main benefit is lower peak memory usage on MV3 vs MV2 ubo extension. If you customize and add new rules then the benefit is already Nil.BTW, chromium runs fine even on ivybridge CPU pentium 2020M and is much smoother than firefox.

Created my own version and uploaded to my github

With this Win11 requirement limits and bloatware are not even installed in the first place and most stuffs can be automated on fresh install.

Refreshed 23H2 and 24H2 ISOs with March 2025. Couple of known issues I found during testing of 23H2 and 24H2.
NTLite boot.wim automated setup has bugs and switched to unattended answer file on all Windows 11 ISOs after Feb 2025 app version updates.
23H2 has issues booting with secure boot after new certificate for secure boot in HyperV/VBox and needs to be disabled pre-install and enabled post install to fix error 0xc000000f.
24H2 works with secure boot ON/OFF.
Dec 2024 ISOs are retained in case people are having issues booting on older PCs that don't support Win 11 HW Reqmts.

Anyway these are the links:
23H2 ISO
23H2 Hash
24H2 ISO
24H2 Hash

You're confusing me here. I don't remember finding anything. BTW what is this thing? It looks like a script for Tampermonkey. Tell me more.

I'm on 23H2 and it works great. I keep hearing complaints about 24H2. For example, they made it more difficult to map network drives. You have to go into the Group Policy Editor and enable it. Let me hold off on it until they iron out the remaining bugs.

Note that a new version of windows 11 with the latest updates will be released tomorrow.

Its not tampermonkey scripts rather automation scripts to install Windows in unattended mode. You only need manual intervention with Selecting Language, Disk and User account creation with/without cloud account. I have made it to be compatible with 32bit, 64bit and ARM64 for Windows 10 and 11. NTLite has issues with component removals so this script will remove bloatware and other apps/pinned items for clean experience. Just copy to root of burnt flash drive or extracted ISO and you're done. No need to install OOSP 10 and manually select everything etc. You need to perform only minor tweaks using winaero tweaker. I kept it as stock as possible to avoid breaking secure boot and boot.wim updates that refused to boot when I deep clean unneeded components via NTLite. Component removals through WinToolkit didn't break Windows 11 23H2 and 24H2.

For unknown reasons, I'm unable to capture the image of windows 11 under Vmware player (Sysprep fails during OOBE with "Error SYSPRP BCD: BiUpdateEfiEntry failed c000000d"). I'm going to use another virtual machine. Hence, The release of a new image of windows 11 is delayed.

Do you know of another virtual machine program other than VirtualBox and VMWare?

No I don't. Actually, I've been able to create a new image and the problem wasn't due to Vmware. This new version will be available later this week-end.

Note that a new version of windows 11 with the April 2025 updates is available on the forum.
In this version, Notepad2 is replacing the original notepad.
