As most of you know, NTLite is a tool to create your own custom install medium.

And it saves you a lot of time installing more than one system identically if you need to.

Some features you can find in NTLite 2.3.2.8500

  • Integrate updates, drivers, automate Windows and application setup, speed up Windows deployment process and have it all set for the next time.
  • Optionally remove Windows components, simplify your installation, reduce attack vectors and free up drive space.
  • Next to editing images, you can also do the same actions on your existing Windows installation in place, without reinstallation.
    *ISO creation only for images, not Live install
