Tiny7 is a bootleg Windows 7 RTM edition, which was created by eXPerience. It released on August 31, 2009, and was added to the archive in late 2022. It is one of the earliest Windows 7 bootlegs, along with Windows 8 xTreme and Windows 7 Black Edition 2009 R1, releasing mere months after Windows 7's original RTM release.

It is notable for being used as an OS on VM1 in CollabVM's early days.

Description

The OS is a slimmed down version of Windows 7 RTM, many features and drivers have been removed.

On the first boot of the OS, it installs several software automatically without any input from the end user. This does not happen again and the software can be uninstalled through Control Panel. It applies several tweaks and installs several pieces of software, and also automatically activates Windows. It also sets a custom wallpaper.

The OS looks the exact same as stock Windows 7, other than a custom wallpaper which has been applied.

The ISO was made using vLite 1.2 on Windows 7 RTM.

Notes

Bootleg quirks

Modern VMware Tools does not install due to the lack of Service Pack 1, you can either manually install the drivers or use an older version of VMware Tools (make sure to change the hardware compatibility to your version of choice).
There is a folder on the desktop titled "eXPerience", which is a reoccurring trope in eXPerience's bootlegs, which include various software. They are as follows:

An internet shortcut to the Comodo Firewall website
DeskSave 8.2.1
Universal Tcpip.sys Patch v1.2
And the rest is just text files and batch scripts which do very helpful and useful things. There are about 4 total.

There is an AutoIt v3 compiled script on the desktop, titled "Enable Quick Launch.exe". What it does is self-explanatory.
The taskbar is unlocked, and uses Small Icons.
