This is how Windows should feel. AtlasOS: • lightweight • private • fast • responsive even under load What changes: • removes telemetry & background tracking • disables unnecessary services & scheduled tasks • removes ads, suggestions & preinstalled apps • reduces CPU usage & RAM consumption • cleans... up UI for a distraction-free experience What you get: • smoother overall performance • lower idle system load • fewer background spikes • better gaming consistency & latency • faster boot & app launch times What stays: • full Windows compatibility • support for games & anti-cheat • Windows updates (configurable) • drivers & hardware support Windows… without the mess.show more

Would you try this over official Windows OS?

This, is how windows should feel

@anyframeisgood Hahaha or cachyos

I've used it before... if you focus on playing games, atlas OS is one of the best options. But if you use it to support your work, don't be surprised by some errors that come because many system files have been removed by them..good for low end, but for mid-up pc almost no impact

yeah, the downside is real. Once you start removing core Windows components, you’re basically trading stability and compatibility for performance. That’s why random issues pop up, especially with work apps, updates, or anything that expects standard Windows behavior.

Would u recommend atlas or ghost spetcre? They seems similar for me, at least quite similar.

Atlas is a safer choice, more control, easier to trust Ghost Spectre is more extreme, but also more risk of random breakage. I would prefer Atlas here as it's more transparent

Bro, thanks a lot. Noted, I will switch to atlas..❤️

Currently you are on windows?

I use windows 11 for working and banking and ghost spectre for gaming but I curious with privacy.

Fair take.

İm actually curious, I will give a try at this, but is it going to give me an equal to Linux's battery saver and privacy? My battery runs out in 3 hours when I use windows, but when I used tlp in Linux, got 9 hours of battery life, and the ram usage was at 700 when its idle.

Honestly… no, you’re not going to get Linux-level battery or privacy on Windows, even with Atlas OS. If battery and privacy matter that much to you, Linux will always win there. Atlas is more like a compromise, not a replacement.

Don’t install modified versions of Windows, way too risky.

But this is no tom dick and harry OS. it's a very transparent and supported by community. Check it yoruself

Heard some good stuff concerning Atlas from a few friends, might give it a shot some time 🤔

Yeah it’s worth trying, just go in with the right expectations. Atlas OS can feel really clean and fast at first, especially if you’re coming from bloated Windows installs. For gaming or just casual use, it can actually feel nice.

WIll have to take a closer look on my side then, thanks for clarifying things up. One of my main complains was win11 feeling bloated, so might be something to make dual-booting worth it with my current linux install😄

another system with broken network folder sharing

It’s not that Windows sharing is “broken,” it’s that Atlas removed parts it depends on. If you rely on network shares even a little, stock Windows or Linux with Samba will feel way more consistent 👍

Oh yeah windows still has drivers huh. Lol.

You remain on windows

Last time I installed a driver on Linux it was that nvidia swill, and it made me want to buy an AMD GPU lol

That’s exactly why so many Linux users just go AMD now. With AMD, drivers are built into the kernel Mesa handles everything updates are seamless Wayland works properly

Yep, we had RHEL workstations at work with Quadro cards, and every kernel update would be a kernel panic on reboot thanks to nvidia's sloppy DKMS support.

One mismatch and boom, black screen or kernel panic. RHEL makes it even more noticeable because everything else is so stable, so the NVIDIA stack sticks out hard when it breaks. It’s not even that NVIDIA is unusable, it’s just fragile compared to everything else in the Linux stack.

Exactly! Has me wondering how they have any foothold in server compute at all.

Bŕo gon get sued for making an app using windows source code but taking all the money from windows by being better

Hahaha I dnt think so. It's been around for a long time.

NEVER use a customised version of Windows. You just dont know what these versions do in the background. Just use an official Microsoft ISOs and do tweaks however YOU see fit. These customised versions could potentially contain malware or other malicious services.

NGL, i prefer ReviOS

What makes it your preferred choice?

Atlas debloates heavy ngl, Revi doesnt remove bloat like Atlas does, and the performance for me is basically the same with less issues due to me using some Microsoft apps, and for the tracking and other stuff i just use other tools for that specific thing

I seriously do not have idea about that OS. But definately will check it out

Worth a try! here’s the link: If you get to try it please tell me what you think :)

Sure buddy. Honestly though, I was thinking of switching to Linux

If you’ve never tried Linux before i’d recommend dual booting honestly

No I have a second system with Cachyos. But I The other with Windows is

SapphireOS or K3rnel is better

Ran AtlasOS on an older gaming rig. Boot times dropped noticeably, idle RAM usage almost halved. The anti-cheat compatibility is the real question before installing, some titles flag modified Windows builds. Test your games first before committing.

Me gustaría de verdad una opinión sincera para dedicar este sistema operativo a videojuegos + estudios con Word, Excel, Photoshop, sabrían si da esa estabilidad

I much prefer Sophia debloater to be honest. Due to it not being quite as destructive as AtlasOS can be.

Вырезание системных компонентов ради экономии 200 мегабайт оперативки тупо ломает магазин приложений и игровые сервисы. Заявленная совместимость на практике оборачивается частыми микрофризами в шутерах и необходимостью 5 часов ковырять реестр через консоль ради восстановления ОС

🤔

????

Will this run Adobe apps okay aka Premiere Pro, After Effect, Photoshop and Illustator?

Yes it should. This is not linux. It's still windows os

Thank you so much. I may try this because my laptop is real old and run slow with latest wins 11 update.

Yes it might give more life to older devices.
