Ghost Spectre is a popular third-party modification of the Windows operating system—primarily Windows 10 and 11—designed to provide a "lite" or "superlite" version of the OS. It is built by a group of developers who strip away non-essential features and bloatware to optimize performance, particularly for low-end hardware and gaming.
