Since I'm not gaming on it, would AtlasOS or ReviOS be the better mod for Win11? I have Win11 Pro.

+InsaneNutter MVC Posted March 30 MVC Share Posted March 30 These modifications look to be aimed at gamers, yet you don't game? so what's the motivation for considering this? Something else to ask yourself: do you trust the people behind these projects not to install anything malicious on your machine? I don't, which is why I wouldn't install neither.

eilegz Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 As many pointed out, using this kind of modded WIndows means no security update, possible conflict and instability and more likely a vulnerable system. You want a light on resources but also one with security updates as i said windows 10 iot enterprise ltsc 2021 its the microsoft oficial version of windows with embeded in mind, with almost no bloat, light and runs like a normal windows 10 devHead, Skyfrog, Ve7878 and 2 others 4 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1439866-atlasos-or-revios-for-win11/#findComment-598892247 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taliseian Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 I've watch a few YT videos and read from forums from Chris Titus, Britech, and MalwareBytes about both Altas and Rev, and while they may be fast they both leave the system open to a number of security holes. Honestly, I would stay far away from them -- unless you are willing to troubleshoot and deal with any issues that come up, including viruses since both of them disable Windows Defender and Windows Update -- You are on your own. devHead, Dick Montage and +InsaneNutter 3 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1439866-atlasos-or-revios-for-win11/#findComment-598892294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick H. Supervisor Posted March 31 Supervisor Share Posted March 31 Yeah, you may not like the answer but I wouldn't bother with either of them. You don't get any real advantages from them, and instead things will break and be unsecure. If bloat is your concern you would be better manually removing what you don't want, or moving away from Windows altogether. These kind of things are experiments, they shouldn't be used on a day-to-day basis. It's like Tiny10/11, it's fun to see how much you can strip the system down but you shouldn't use it for a prolonged period of time.

Ixion Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 What is it that needs "repairing"? As others have said stock windows 11 is actually pretty good at being optimised for games, I would turn off things like protected memory integrity as recommended by Microsoft to get the most from your system, otherwise if you really want to try something different (and ideally have an AMD GPU) then you could try Linux + Proton as used by the Steam Desk but it's a lot of tinkering for probably small percentage gains if any!

On the topic of your original question, using these scripts to modify Windows 11 doesn't really make it run better. I guess it depends on what you're trying to accomplish with your Windows 11 installation, but as others have said, you're better off manually removing apps and disabling services you don't want running. satukoro and Dick Montage 2 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1439866-atlasos-or-revios-for-win11/#findComment-598892352 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleNeutrino Veteran Posted March 31 Veteran Share Posted March 31 Similar to those above I would recommend doing more research on these and any other system modifications of the like. Way the pros and cons of if you care about Security over speed. Also if the goal is to just give an aging machine a longer lifetime perhaps evaluate whether or not Windows is even the best option for you. If your only goal is a computer with more speed with the same hardware a lighter weight OS might be a better option as you will be able to maintain security. Just food for thought.

satukoro Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 After looking into it, I would argue most of the "improvements" brought by either ReviOS or AtlasOS are just snake oil. You could just as easily take Windows 10 or 11 and: disable all startup applications (likely to be very few on a fresh install) disable any unnecessary services (likely to be none on a fresh install) disable mica and other effects in the shell, and get just as many performance gains as these solutions offer If Windows is what's bogging down your gaming PC, you probably have a pretty bad hardware bottleneck or an excess of bloat (paid antivirus, monitoring software, overzealous print software, unnecessary "cleaner" apps, etc.). If you have not cleaned up any bloat that comes with pre-installed windows, I would start there. If you don't care about security, try both options and see if you like one more than stock windows. However if you are looking for a stripped down experience, maybe make yourself familiar with the things these third part OS solutions are stripping out of windows and see if it's really beneficial to remove. Stock "N" (especially Pro N) versions of Windows are pretty bare-bones to begin with so I would personally recommend you start there. devHead, Skyfrog and goretsky 3 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1439866-atlasos-or-revios-for-win11/#findComment-598892486 Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you purchase a license key and install Windows, you don't magically own it. You agree to the terms of its use, and you own a license to run it on your PC. They absolutely own it.

Also, what sort of problems are you having with the laptop, exactly? If there is a hardware component that is damaged and not working, changing the operating system is not going to fix that.
