This one will run fine on hardware that won't support Windows 11. For people who like the look of Windows 11 but who can't meet the hardware requirements, this is for them.

 

My install failed. I didn't try again.

 

Copycats

 

I don't get it. Why make a Linux distro look like Windows? Ubuntu might not be the most aesthetic interface (it has improved) but it's far nicer than Windows. I don't know, de gustibus non est disputandum?

 

+ 1.
Likewise, I don't get why people make themes that mimic MacOS.

 

I think I can get why people make Ubuntu look like Mac, there is a similarity in the overall look of both systems (they have similar roots). Although I wouldn't do it myself. There again, Mac is a lot less orange than Ubuntu lol.

 

Some people like Windows and MacOS. Its like comfort food.

 

Comfort food isn't always good for you lol.

I guess, to encourage Windows users to switch to Linux. I greatly prefer the look of Windows to Ubuntu, but that's just me.

 

Has anyone installed this distro?

 

You're probably right. There's no accounting for tastes lol.

 

The previous version used the Cinnamon desktop. WindowsFx is now built on KDE Plasma 5.
