Usually, the installation of the Windows 10 operating system lasts 20-30 minutes (1200-1800 seconds). If desired, this process can be accelerated. Enthusiast and developer NTDev decided to see if it would be possible to reduce the installation time by more than 10 times and reach 100 seconds.
To find out, he used a specially optimized and reduced version of Windows 10. A practical experiment proved that you can install the OS from scratch in 2 minutes. However, it was not possible to put in 100 seconds. So, NTDev took the entire Windows 10 automated installation process from startup to loading the desktop in just 105 seconds, as indicated by the countdown timer.
To achieve this result, NTDev used “the fastest storage available [и] RAM”, as well as a version of Tiny10 (a modified version of Windows 10 with various optimizations and removed optional components), which was subjected to “additional optimization”.
Such speed records are unlikely to interest ordinary users. However, the ability to quickly install Windows 10 or 11 (even faster than drinking coffee) can be useful for developers who quite often have to install the OS during work.
