this is NOT windows (it's even worse)

so I stumbled across this video from an so I stumbled across this video from an account called troubleshoot titled this account called troubleshoot titled this account called troubleshoot titled this OS is almost windows I watched a little OS is almost windows I watched a little OS is almost windows I watched a little bit of it and I quickly thought oh I bit of it and I quickly thought oh I bit of it and I quickly thought oh I need to check this out myself and this need to check this out myself and this need to check this out myself and this definitely isn't the first time that definitely isn't the first time that definitely isn't the first time that we've checked out a clone on this we've checked out a clone on this we've checked out a clone on this channel some Linux distribution that channel some Linux distribution that channel some Linux distribution that tries to either mimic Windows or Mac OS tries to either mimic Windows or Mac OS tries to either mimic Windows or Mac OS but this is the first time that I've but this is the first time that I've but this is the first time that I've been moderately impressed especially been moderately impressed especially been moderately impressed especially compared to some of the other ones where compared to some of the other ones where compared to some of the other ones where it doesn't really seem like they try all it doesn't really seem like they try all it doesn't really seem like they try all that hard or the operating systems are that hard or the operating systems are that hard or the operating systems are complete and utter garbage so boom this complete and utter garbage so boom this complete and utter garbage so boom this right here is the desktop I just got it right here is the desktop I just got it right here is the desktop I just got it installed and at first glance you would installed and at first glance you would installed and at first glance you would probably think that this is a Windows probably think that this is a Windows probably think that this is a Windows operating system if you saw this operating system if you saw this operating system if you saw this installed on a computer off to the side installed on a computer off to the side installed on a computer off to the side you'd be like oh that's running Windows you'd be like oh that's running Windows you'd be like oh that's running Windows and even if you go so far as to click on and even if you go so far as to click on and even if you go so far as to click on the start menu you're like oh that's the start menu you're like oh that's the start menu you're like oh that's running Windows the theming on this is running Windows the theming on this is running Windows the theming on this is absolutely Immaculate it's only when you absolutely Immaculate it's only when you absolutely Immaculate it's only when you start looking at some of the fine start looking at some of the fine start looking at some of the fine details that you do realize such as Kate details that you do realize such as Kate details that you do realize such as Kate right here is as the text editor only right here is as the text editor only right here is as the text editor only Office Center as the Microsoft Office Office Center as the Microsoft Office Office Center as the Microsoft Office replacement info center if we open up replacement info center if we open up replacement info center if we open up the system monitor for example this is the system monitor for example this is the system monitor for example this is obviously uh KDE plasma running and it obviously uh KDE plasma running and it obviously uh KDE plasma running and it makes sense to use KDE plasma for makes sense to use KDE plasma for makes sense to use KDE plasma for something like this it is definitely one something like this it is definitely one something like this it is definitely one of the more customizable desktop of the more customizable desktop of the more customizable desktop environments out there and I really just environments out there and I really just environments out there and I really just can't can't get over how uh a like this can't can't get over how uh a like this can't can't get over how uh a like this looks I mean you could probably throw looks I mean you could probably throw looks I mean you could probably throw this on somebody who's not as this on somebody who's not as this on somebody who's not as technically Savvy throw this on the technically Savvy throw this on the technically Savvy throw this on the computer give it to them tell them it's computer give it to them tell them it's computer give it to them tell them it's Windows if they're really only going to Windows if they're really only going to Windows if they're really only going to use Microsoft Edge he I'll go and open use Microsoft Edge he I'll go and open use Microsoft Edge he I'll go and open it up there we go uh no get rid of this

it up there we go uh no get rid of this it up there we go uh no get rid of this garbage and there we go throw them into garbage and there we go throw them into garbage and there we go throw them into this and it's going to be a very very this and it's going to be a very very this and it's going to be a very very familiar experience for them and I do familiar experience for them and I do familiar experience for them and I do believe there are functions to help you believe there are functions to help you believe there are functions to help you install applications so let's go ahead install applications so let's go ahead install applications so let's go ahead and grab something um notepad++ granted and grab something um notepad++ granted and grab something um notepad++ granted K is actually better in my opinion but K is actually better in my opinion but K is actually better in my opinion but we're going to grab this and try to we're going to grab this and try to we're going to grab this and try to install this Windows application so install this Windows application so install this Windows application so let's go and grab the latest version let's go and grab the latest version let's go and grab the latest version installer and there we go so if we go installer and there we go so if we go installer and there we go so if we go ahead go to our file browser which this ahead go to our file browser which this ahead go to our file browser which this is another one it's not as well themed is another one it's not as well themed is another one it's not as well themed as the start menu and all that but they as the start menu and all that but they as the start menu and all that but they did a pretty decent job trying to make did a pretty decent job trying to make did a pretty decent job trying to make um dolphin look as similar to the um dolphin look as similar to the um dolphin look as similar to the windows kind of file explorer as they windows kind of file explorer as they windows kind of file explorer as they could but right here we have the EXE the could but right here we have the EXE the could but right here we have the EXE the actual icon is showing up which is actual icon is showing up which is actual icon is showing up which is pretty cool let's double click on that pretty cool let's double click on that pretty cool let's double click on that wine of course is going to be the wine of course is going to be the wine of course is going to be the installation method for this so this is installation method for this so this is installation method for this so this is the first install we're missing the first install we're missing the first install we're missing something for The NET Framework let's go something for The NET Framework let's go something for The NET Framework let's go and click install and see if it works and click install and see if it works and click install and see if it works and while it does that I will note the and while it does that I will note the and while it does that I will note the reason why I'm using notepad plus plus reason why I'm using notepad plus plus reason why I'm using notepad plus plus is I know it works with wine if you try is I know it works with wine if you try is I know it works with wine if you try to install a variety of other to install a variety of other to install a variety of other applications whether that be actual applications whether that be actual applications whether that be actual professional tools you might want to use professional tools you might want to use professional tools you might want to use such as Adobe products Microsoft Office such as Adobe products Microsoft Office such as Adobe products Microsoft Office Products basically any like Advanced Products basically any like Advanced Products basically any like Advanced higher level application is probably not higher level application is probably not higher level application is probably not going to work with wine and I'll go going to work with wine and I'll go going to work with wine and I'll go ahead and put some resources down below ahead and put some resources down below ahead and put some resources down below if you're interested to see kind of what if you're interested to see kind of what if you're interested to see kind of what does work with wine and some of my other does work with wine and some of my other does work with wine and some of my other videos going over how to install Windows videos going over how to install Windows videos going over how to install Windows games and applications on Linux very games and applications on Linux very games and applications on Linux very good resources but here's the installer good resources but here's the installer good resources but here's the installer so we're going to go and select English so we're going to go and select English so we're going to go and select English and this looks very good so next agree and this looks very good so next agree and this looks very good so next agree next next and this probably won't work

next next and this probably won't work next next and this probably won't work but I'm going to check it and install so but I'm going to check it and install so but I'm going to check it and install so there we go and it did work that's kind there we go and it did work that's kind there we go and it did work that's kind of crazy so here's our desktop shortcut of crazy so here's our desktop shortcut of crazy so here's our desktop shortcut that it created uh let's launch it that it created uh let's launch it that it created uh let's launch it through that shortcut and see if it through that shortcut and see if it through that shortcut and see if it opens up so notepad++ and here it is we opens up so notepad++ and here it is we opens up so notepad++ and here it is we have notepad++ Windows application and have notepad++ Windows application and have notepad++ Windows application and it looks good looks native if I saw a it looks good looks native if I saw a it looks good looks native if I saw a screenshot like this the only things screenshot like this the only things screenshot like this the only things that would kind of throw me off are this that would kind of throw me off are this that would kind of throw me off are this right here right here right here uh doesn't look correct the font in the uh doesn't look correct the font in the uh doesn't look correct the font in the uh clock is a little off and some of uh clock is a little off and some of uh clock is a little off and some of these icons I'm unfamiliar with but these icons I'm unfamiliar with but these icons I'm unfamiliar with but other than that I mean it's a really other than that I mean it's a really other than that I mean it's a really really good do I have access to the root really good do I have access to the root really good do I have access to the root file system save as save close then if file system save as save close then if file system save as save close then if we open it up through here oh that's we open it up through here oh that's we open it up through here oh that's cool the the icon theming is also really cool the the icon theming is also really cool the the icon theming is also really really nice under documents we have the really nice under documents we have the really nice under documents we have the new text document so it's working pretty new text document so it's working pretty new text document so it's working pretty good let's go and close that out I'm good let's go and close that out I'm good let's go and close that out I'm going to hit this and see if I could going to hit this and see if I could going to hit this and see if I could configure the weather set location configure the weather set location configure the weather set location and the icon still do look right but and the icon still do look right but and the icon still do look right but it's cool edits there so let's go down it's cool edits there so let's go down it's cool edits there so let's go down here we have co-pilot we have the search here we have co-pilot we have the search here we have co-pilot we have the search so if I hit find it's probably going to so if I hit find it's probably going to so if I hit find it's probably going to open up krunner unless if there's some open up krunner unless if there's some open up krunner unless if there's some sort of other application oh yep sort of other application oh yep sort of other application oh yep settings yep krunner settings so that's settings yep krunner settings so that's settings yep krunner settings so that's another thing the search bar isn't on another thing the search bar isn't on another thing the search bar isn't on the bottom there that would probably the bottom there that would probably the bottom there that would probably take a little bit of effort to take a little bit of effort to take a little bit of effort to incorporate that properly let's close incorporate that properly let's close incorporate that properly let's close this out Microsoft co-pilot how's this this out Microsoft co-pilot how's this this out Microsoft co-pilot how's this going to open up probably an edge if I going to open up probably an edge if I going to open up probably an edge if I was to make an assumption yeah I think was to make an assumption yeah I think was to make an assumption yeah I think so yeah this is just like a web app of so yeah this is just like a web app of so yeah this is just like a web app of it but it still works nonetheless you it but it still works nonetheless you it but it still works nonetheless you have access to it let's close this out have access to it let's close this out have access to it let's close this out we have the virtual desktop so if I open we have the virtual desktop so if I open we have the virtual desktop so if I open up something and then go to the virtual

up something and then go to the virtual up something and then go to the virtual desktop that looks pretty good there's desktop that looks pretty good there's desktop that looks pretty good there's four of them by default and wonder four of them by default and wonder four of them by default and wonder what's going to open up with chat this what's going to open up with chat this what's going to open up with chat this is usually Microsoft teams here let's is usually Microsoft teams here let's is usually Microsoft teams here let's give that an open this might actually be give that an open this might actually be give that an open this might actually be Microsoft teams here it's just not Microsoft teams here it's just not Microsoft teams here it's just not loading up properly I don't know if loading up properly I don't know if loading up properly I don't know if they're technically allowed to do that they're technically allowed to do that they're technically allowed to do that that might go against like Microsoft's that might go against like Microsoft's that might go against like Microsoft's terms of service oh yeah it's bugging terms of service oh yeah it's bugging terms of service oh yeah it's bugging out pretty good I don't think you're out pretty good I don't think you're out pretty good I don't think you're allowed to pre-install Microsoft allowed to pre-install Microsoft allowed to pre-install Microsoft products and Linux distributions I feel products and Linux distributions I feel products and Linux distributions I feel like that's against the rules and it's like that's against the rules and it's like that's against the rules and it's not working anyways so I'm going to try not working anyways so I'm going to try not working anyways so I'm going to try force closing that there we go and then force closing that there we go and then force closing that there we go and then last but not least discover let's see if last but not least discover let's see if last but not least discover let's see if they tried to theme this at all beyond they tried to theme this at all beyond they tried to theme this at all beyond the default nope looks the same but it the default nope looks the same but it the default nope looks the same but it looks good I like it so let's close this looks good I like it so let's close this looks good I like it so let's close this out jump into our start menu one more out jump into our start menu one more out jump into our start menu one more time we got one drive integration I'm time we got one drive integration I'm time we got one drive integration I'm curious if this is actual integration or curious if this is actual integration or curious if this is actual integration or if it's going to open up another web app if it's going to open up another web app if it's going to open up another web app an error has occurred oh it is a one an error has occurred oh it is a one an error has occurred oh it is a one drive sync utility so it is an drive sync utility so it is an drive sync utility so it is an integration ah there it is cool I'm not integration ah there it is cool I'm not integration ah there it is cool I'm not going to actually set this up I don't going to actually set this up I don't going to actually set this up I don't actually use one drive so nah but it's actually use one drive so nah but it's actually use one drive so nah but it's cool that it's there now let's go ahead cool that it's there now let's go ahead cool that it's there now let's go ahead and open up a terminal and I actually and open up a terminal and I actually and open up a terminal and I actually think there's a if I go Powershell think there's a if I go Powershell think there's a if I go Powershell Microsoft Powershell is actually Microsoft Powershell is actually Microsoft Powershell is actually available uh by stock in Ubuntu via snap available uh by stock in Ubuntu via snap available uh by stock in Ubuntu via snap package if you happen to be interested I package if you happen to be interested I package if you happen to be interested I don't see why you would but it is there don't see why you would but it is there don't see why you would but it is there htop all app install htop so we've been htop all app install htop so we've been htop all app install htop so we've been opening closing some things let's open opening closing some things let's open opening closing some things let's open up htop and see what we got going on 1.5 up htop and see what we got going on 1.5 up htop and see what we got going on 1.5 gigabytes of RAM which is pretty average gigabytes of RAM which is pretty average gigabytes of RAM which is pretty average and nothing too crazy here let's quit and nothing too crazy here let's quit and nothing too crazy here let's quit out of that pseudo app install Neo fetch out of that pseudo app install Neo fetch out of that pseudo app install Neo fetch so we kind of get a better idea of

so we kind of get a better idea of so we kind of get a better idea of what's going on in the system it's what's going on in the system it's what's going on in the system it's already installed which is cool so Neo already installed which is cool so Neo already installed which is cool so Neo fetch here it is and of course it's fetch here it is and of course it's fetch here it is and of course it's already installed because they had to already installed because they had to already installed because they had to throw in their custom little uh kind of throw in their custom little uh kind of throw in their custom little uh kind of Windows XP esque icon this is running Windows XP esque icon this is running Windows XP esque icon this is running plasma plasma plasma 5.27 this is the W window light blur 5.27 this is the W window light blur 5.27 this is the W window light blur theme now if I go into settings theme now if I go into settings theme now if I go into settings system settings this is power toys. system settings this is power toys. system settings this is power toys. control now I will note I don't think it control now I will note I don't think it control now I will note I don't think it said something about a trial when I said something about a trial when I said something about a trial when I first opened this up which does not or first opened this up which does not or first opened this up which does not or is not that great power toys needs to be is not that great power toys needs to be is not that great power toys needs to be active so this is like their custom active so this is like their custom active so this is like their custom settings for all the Integrations and settings for all the Integrations and settings for all the Integrations and stuff they provide so like if I go over stuff they provide so like if I go over stuff they provide so like if I go over here to customization and I want to use here to customization and I want to use here to customization and I want to use this uh darker theme here I can select this uh darker theme here I can select this uh darker theme here I can select that and is it going to work whoa where' that and is it going to work whoa where' that and is it going to work whoa where' we go there we go so that doesn't look we go there we go so that doesn't look we go there we go so that doesn't look too great but it it changed some things too great but it it changed some things too great but it it changed some things we have accounts time and language they we have accounts time and language they we have accounts time and language they did a really good job about making this did a really good job about making this did a really good job about making this kind of look like Windows but now is kind of look like Windows but now is kind of look like Windows but now is when I'm going to start talking when I'm going to start talking when I'm going to start talking negatively on it and now like I said negatively on it and now like I said negatively on it and now like I said earlier compared to some of the other earlier compared to some of the other earlier compared to some of the other things we checked out it is things we checked out it is things we checked out it is significantly better but I feel like a significantly better but I feel like a significantly better but I feel like a lot of this could just be installed on lot of this could just be installed on lot of this could just be installed on any kind of plasma environment with like any kind of plasma environment with like any kind of plasma environment with like a a simple bash script or something like a a simple bash script or something like a a simple bash script or something like that rather than forcing you to like that rather than forcing you to like that rather than forcing you to like install an entire Linux distribution install an entire Linux distribution install an entire Linux distribution let's go over to their website so here let's go over to their website so here let's go over to their website so here it is and you can see the link to get a it is and you can see the link to get a it is and you can see the link to get a professional key now to use this it is professional key now to use this it is professional key now to use this it is $35 granted the price if you actually $35 granted the price if you actually $35 granted the price if you actually really support this project isn't too

really support this project isn't too really support this project isn't too bad but whenever you start charging uh bad but whenever you start charging uh bad but whenever you start charging uh for Linux distributions you kind of for Linux distributions you kind of for Linux distributions you kind of start getting into some Muddy Waters and start getting into some Muddy Waters and start getting into some Muddy Waters and especially trying to charge for Linux especially trying to charge for Linux especially trying to charge for Linux distribution just to look like Windows distribution just to look like Windows distribution just to look like Windows is a little weird uh let's go to the is a little weird uh let's go to the is a little weird uh let's go to the project page here the download is project page here the download is project page here the download is available on Source Forge and I will available on Source Forge and I will available on Source Forge and I will note the download is huge if we go over note the download is huge if we go over note the download is huge if we go over here to five FES it is here to five FES it is here to five FES it is 5.1 GB holy crap now we see here we have 5.1 GB holy crap now we see here we have 5.1 GB holy crap now we see here we have Windows 10 and windows 11 theme if we go Windows 10 and windows 11 theme if we go Windows 10 and windows 11 theme if we go down here oh it's still the full down here oh it's still the full down here oh it's still the full operating system oh oh I hate Microsoft operating system oh oh I hate Microsoft operating system oh oh I hate Microsoft Edge sometimes I can't unselect that and Edge sometimes I can't unselect that and Edge sometimes I can't unselect that and after applying the theme I think I mean after applying the theme I think I mean after applying the theme I think I mean things are starting to look pretty bad things are starting to look pretty bad things are starting to look pretty bad pre Edition LTS of w cinnamon so they do pre Edition LTS of w cinnamon so they do pre Edition LTS of w cinnamon so they do have a couple versions if we scroll down have a couple versions if we scroll down have a couple versions if we scroll down here we have the W Ubuntu plasma with here we have the W Ubuntu plasma with here we have the W Ubuntu plasma with the Windows 11 theme we have W Ubuntu the Windows 11 theme we have W Ubuntu the Windows 11 theme we have W Ubuntu cinnamon with the Windows 10 theme cinnamon with the Windows 10 theme cinnamon with the Windows 10 theme pre-installed and then we have something pre-installed and then we have something pre-installed and then we have something else Linux FX which I believe is one of else Linux FX which I believe is one of else Linux FX which I believe is one of the kind of crappy ones that we've the kind of crappy ones that we've the kind of crappy ones that we've looked at in the past and there's no looked at in the past and there's no looked at in the past and there's no like links to any social media I don't like links to any social media I don't like links to any social media I don't think contact us I mean they have a think contact us I mean they have a think contact us I mean they have a telegram Group which works oh and a telegram Group which works oh and a telegram Group which works oh and a phone number I don't want to call it I phone number I don't want to call it I phone number I don't want to call it I don't Community start here One Thing 1 don't Community start here One Thing 1 don't Community start here One Thing 1 hour ago so they definitely have a lot hour ago so they definitely have a lot hour ago so they definitely have a lot of work to do on their website Browning of work to do on their website Browning of work to do on their website Browning and branding and actually kind of and branding and actually kind of and branding and actually kind of demonstrating what the product is and demonstrating what the product is and demonstrating what the product is and does but overall it's a cool project the does but overall it's a cool project the does but overall it's a cool project the Integrations are nice they some of their Integrations are nice they some of their Integrations are nice they some of their tools are cool if I go over to release tools are cool if I go over to release tools are cool if I go over to release notes Here we can see some of the notes Here we can see some of the notes Here we can see some of the differences if we go right here the

differences if we go right here the differences if we go right here the latest release was January about a month latest release was January about a month latest release was January about a month ago and this is I can't click on this so ago and this is I can't click on this so ago and this is I can't click on this so this is all the information we get this is all the information we get this is all the information we get system librar several bug fixes so the system librar several bug fixes so the system librar several bug fixes so the amount of informationally provide and amount of informationally provide and amount of informationally provide and them trying to charge for it getting them trying to charge for it getting them trying to charge for it getting like trial notifications and stuff is a like trial notifications and stuff is a like trial notifications and stuff is a little sketch um it's going to be it's little sketch um it's going to be it's little sketch um it's going to be it's going to be interesting to see if this going to be interesting to see if this going to be interesting to see if this project continues a lot of these kind of project continues a lot of these kind of project continues a lot of these kind of fizzle out die out but we'll see I do fizzle out die out but we'll see I do fizzle out die out but we'll see I do wish that they would just provide a wish that they would just provide a wish that they would just provide a script that we could use to install this script that we could use to install this script that we could use to install this kind of look on a KD plasma environment kind of look on a KD plasma environment kind of look on a KD plasma environment that would be really cool and to be that would be really cool and to be that would be really cool and to be frank that's what probably 90 to 95% of frank that's what probably 90 to 95% of frank that's what probably 90 to 95% of most Linux distributions out there could most Linux distributions out there could most Linux distributions out there could just do install base kabutu pop this just do install base kabutu pop this just do install base kabutu pop this theme on there you're good to go but theme on there you're good to go but theme on there you're good to go but with all that please let me know what with all that please let me know what with all that please let me know what you think down below I would be you think down below I would be you think down below I would be interested to hear you guys' thoughts interested to hear you guys' thoughts interested to hear you guys' thoughts and opinions on this I will be linking and opinions on this I will be linking and opinions on this I will be linking to some uh references such as the to some uh references such as the to some uh references such as the original video that I discovered this original video that I discovered this original video that I discovered this with and some of my own videos on other with and some of my own videos on other with and some of my own videos on other clone type operating systems with all clone type operating systems with all clone type operating systems with all that I do hope you have an absolutely that I do hope you have an absolutely that I do hope you have an absolutely beautiful day do make sure you check out beautiful day do make sure you check out beautiful day do make sure you check out the newsletter uh weekly source of Linux the newsletter uh weekly source of Linux the newsletter uh weekly source of Linux news and open source and Tech news and news and open source and Tech news and news and open source and Tech news and stuff like that and once again have a stuff like that and once again have a stuff like that and once again have a beautiful day and goodbye
