Run Windows apps on Linux

I never had any luck running MS Office with Bottles or WINE.

I would like to see a video about running windows within linux.

Yes, please give us a video about how to set up Windows in Linux. I would especially love to know if there's a way to do it for free and to install it without any of the Windows spyware, or to at least minimize it

I have found that if the Windows program needs the .NET framework, MS has made it impossible to install the .NET the app needs. On the otherhand, I have installed many Win programs on Linux Mint, using just Wine. I played with Bottles, and found it a pain. Linux Mint's message board has an install procedure for Wine and it worked great for me.

I use Linux Mint as my Daily Driver. It does 90% of what I need it to do (Email, Web Browsing, Simple Docs, Picture Editing), and I'm not monitored and tracked by Microsoft. For my Work Needs, I have my Windows Laptop. Linux can be buggy, and isn't for everyone, especially people who rely heavily on Windows Apps.

Please show how to set up Virtual environment on Linux so I can run windows 10. I have a number or apps that do not require the internet so that should help. I can download stand alone updates for them. Should the VD be on a different hard drive? I have 3 laptops and a desk top that cannot be upgraded to 11. Eventually I have to buy another box for 11.

Yes please to a virtual environment video. Thanks for this one, useful to know.

Thumbed up and subscribed..I'm brand new to Linux mint would love a windows 10 in mint tutorial please as there are a few must have apps and games I would like to bring with me to mint

This is why I'm still using Windows. Well, I'm using a custom version of Windows. It has worked fine for me, and I haven't encountered more problems than with the stock Windows. @9:39 i really agree with this.

Linux Mint newb here. YES! Please show us how to do Win10 in Linux!

This Bottl thing looks simpler than trying to use WINE. The only Windows programme that was "indispensable" to me was Microsoft Access. I took less than an hour to convert my Access files into something that worked under LibreOffice Base. It was actually a fun adventure to make the conversion which turned out to be very successful. The process was as close to playing a game as I ever get. 🤣🤣 This allowed me to throw out Windows entirely. I'm not a gamer, so switching over to Linux all those years ago was not much of a challenge. If I kept using Windows, I'm not certain if I would have been vulnerable to this week's CrowdStrike debacle, but I really feel for people who were impacted by this. With all the malice out there on the internet, I just know MY time to scream and cry in my tiny Linux bubble is just around the corner... The best of luck to you. Aloha.

Well I agree, it is not just a install your windows app and run it on Linux. But why did you use the wine version of Steam and not the native Linux Steam. Gaming on Linux especially on Steam is much easier when you use the native version of Steam.

Nowadays , many software companies were forced to use subscription web.based apps. Checkbook no longer sell application, but ratter subscription to use web-based app. It does not matter anymore what OS you have got in your system

Great video Liron. My only issue with Linux Mint is that I cannot use my Canon MP780 Printer or my Canon 5200 flatbed scanner. Seemingly Brother products are the only ones that come with drivers for Linux operating systems. Would Bottles allow me to use the Windows drivers for Canon in Linux Mint? Thank you for all your videos. They are very helpful. I direct my friends and family to your Youtube channel because you are the best at tech. Cheers from Australia.

thanks for you guides on Linux 🙏

At 8:55, did you install the library & program on the sudo apt line?

did you do a video about the black out IT error blue screen yesterday ?

Thank you for doing my work for me.

Again you gotta be making these videos for me. I got Mint up and running. It's been a great experience so far

I would LOVE to know how to run Win10 in Linux. Especially in Mint and/or Zorin. Thanks.
