Re: Ransomware and all kinds of attack, in our computer asking for btc payment

I've been using Windows for about a decade now and I am planning to switch to another Operating System which is similar on how Windows Operates. I am currently using Windows for academic purposes such as writing document in MS Office Products, programming using Dev C++, Photoshop etc. These application are crucial since I am studying Computer Engineering and needed an OS that can handle IDE application and similar products like AutoCAD.

Can anyone suggest a different OS that maintains its user friendly interface and can provide similar function from Windows?

However, is it possible to install two OS in one PC?

yes you can I can suggest use ubuntu, den install virtualbox then run windows inside,

I doubt you can run windows application which need 3D/GPU acceleration from VirtualBox. IIRC VirtualBox have limited 3D/GPU acceleration support.

yes you can run windows application on linux just use playonlinux

I use Wine/PlayOnLinux & i know those have good 3D/GPU acceleration, but those aren't part of VirtualBox.

yes correct, playonlinux can be run ubuntu, itself, means even without using virtualbox you can run windows application, I can also play dota2 with ubuntu, without any issue sorry I answer both question the last time
