Zorin OS 16.2 makes it even easier to switch from Microsoft Windows 11 to Linux
Do you want to know a secret? If you don’t like Windows 11, you don’t have to use it. Look, in 2022 there are plenty of legitimate alternatives. For example, you can buy a Mac or a Chromebook. However, if you want to use your existing computer, you can simply install a traditional Linux distribution such as Ubuntu.
One of the best Linux-based operating systems for Windows Switches these days is Zorin OS. This distro is based on Ubuntu, but improves on that distro by providing a more user-centric experience, especially for current Windows users. Today, Zorin OS 16.2 is released and the latest OS version makes it even easier to ditch Windows 11. You see, with Zorin OS 16.2, you can run Windows programs easily.
“For those who want to use Windows apps and games in the Zorin OS, we’ve made it easier to find and install Windows app support. Now you can simply open the Zorin menu, navigate to the section ‘System Tools’ and open ‘Windows App Support’ to activate it with one click”, explains the developers.
The developers add, “We’ve also expanded our built-in database that detects Windows installer files for popular apps and games. It provides even more personalized recommendations for alternatives to sideloading Windows executables, guiding you towards a better user experience. For example, launching the Windows installers for Epic Games Store or GOG Galaxy now prompts you to install the Heroic Games Launcher.”
