This remarkable speed was achieved through a combination of high-performance hardware, including top-tier SSDs and RAM, and the use of a stripped-down installation program known as Tiny10. This lightweight version of Windows 10 eliminates numerous non-essential components and installation steps, streamlining the process significantly. Furthermore, the entire installation is fully automated, requiring no manual intervention.
With such a significant reduction in installation time, it’s exciting to speculate whether future advancements could potentially push the boundary even further, perhaps achieving installation times under 100 seconds.
