Just use WSL
Real winners download the source code and compile it from scratch to flex on proprietary software users
I install windows from command line only
Reject modernity; Return to MS-DOS
it requires admin permissions... and on the only place where i'm forced to use windows i don't have those
Rdp server is the way then. xrdp for example
Probably shouldn't have access to that either if your IT department is doing a good job.
I'd rather die.
True, but it doesn't work for some apps in my experience
Idk, mb some system-ish stuff? Otherwise it should work ~fine since wsl[2] is just a VM and not like a piece of art like wine
I'll try again some time to check, but last time I had trouble with some apps installed on openSUSE WSL, like some theming issues and some apps not opening (probably relying on system components as you say)
There’s probably some random config file on a forum post 18 years old where half the images don’t load cause the hosting service they used for image went down
Are there any simple instructions. I swear everything is seen just goes over my head.
WSL is really easy to setup by now. In the beginning it was really terrible.
Now all you need to do (if you are fine with Ubuntu) is open CMD with admin rights and input
wsl --install.If you want another distro, it's
wsl -l -oto check the available distros andwsl --install -dto install it.More documentation here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install
Thanks. I'll check it out.
