Windows 11 Pro Raven OS Ekstrim Lite 24H2 26100 is a heavily modified, third-party "lite" distribution of Windows 11 designed for maximum performance and minimal resource usage. Built on the official Windows 11 Pro 24H2 (Build 26100) base, this version is specifically tailored for low-end hardware, older PCs, and power users who want a "debloated" environment free from Microsoft's standard background processes. Key Features of Raven OS Ekstrim Lite

This custom build focuses on stripping away non-essential components to create a highly responsive system.

Performance Optimizations

  • Reduced RAM usage: Idles at 600-800MB (official Win11 Pro idles at 2-2.5GB).
  • Small storage footprint: Under 6GB after installation (official requires 64GB).
  • Disabled background services: Over 50 services disabled including SysMain, Windows Error Reporting, and Diagnostic Tracking.
  • CPU scheduler tweaks: Allegedly optimized for AMD Ryzen and Intel 12th-14th gen hybrid architecture.

9. Review & Verdict

  • Who is this for? (Old PCs, gamers, low-RAM systems, enthusiasts)
  • Who should avoid? (Production, security-sensitive, beginners)

Aesthetic Mods

  • Custom Raven dark theme with transparency effects.
  • Modified boot screen (razor or bird logo instead of default Windows logo).
  • Removed "Recommended" section from Start Menu.

❌ What NOT to do in a proper post

  • Claim it’s “faster than official Windows” without benchmarks
  • Omit security warnings
  • Share malware/virus scan results showing infections without flagging them
  • Forget to mention that re-enabling removed features is difficult/impossible

4. Results

| Metric | Stock Win11 Pro 24H2 | Raven OS Ekstrim Lite 24H2 | |--------|----------------------|-----------------------------| | Boot time (cold) | 27 sec | 14 sec | | RAM idle (after 2 min) | 2.1 GB | 1.1 GB | | Background processes | 142 | 42 | | Storage footprint | 28 GB | 9.2 GB | | Windows Defender active | Yes | Removed / Not present | | BitLocker available | Yes | Removed | | Firewall enabled by default | Yes | Disabled | | Signed drivers only | Yes | Mixed (2 unsigned) |

Outbound connections observed after boot (Raven OS): connections to telemetry.ravenos[.]xyz (non‑Microsoft) and kms.digiboy[.]ir – likely for activation but a security concern.

How to Spot Malicious Modded ISOs (Forensic Tips)

If you absolutely insist on testing such builds in a VM, look for these red flags:

  • File size too small: A 1.5GB ISO claiming to be Win11 24H2 is impossible (official is 5-6GB). Missing drivers, languages, and critical system files.
  • Pre-activated: Any ISO promising "permanent activation" likely includes a crack or KMS server that could be malicious.
  • No checksums (SHA-256) provided: Legitimate modders (rare) publish hashes. Without it, you cannot verify integrity.
  • Hidden partitions: After install, check Disk Management for unknown OEM partitions or write-protected areas (could hide malware).

Who Is The Target Audience?

Despite the risks, these builds attract specific user personas:
