Hello techytv.com!

I'm using Windows 7 right now, and ribbon browser had been a big help for me because it helps me find those stuffs that I need with less clicks and commands. Now I was thinking of swapping into Linux and it would be a great help if there would be a ribbon browser like program in Linux, so is there any?

Hi Alex A Gonzales,

Why you need ribbon browser like program in Linux? You can use your ribbon browser in Linux. You should just download a software name “Wine” for your Linux operating system. By this software you can use many Windows software in your Linux Operating system. “Wine” is totally free, so you should not purchase that. Go to “Wine” official website and get it and install windows software in Linux operating system. For your help I am giving you the address of “Wine” software where you will get it.

Why you should access this website and why you should use wine ?

The answer is if you use wine then you can easily use many software which is used in Windows operating system. So, if you are converting into Linux operating system then you must use Wine for installing windows software perfectly.

Good luck

If you are trying to install a Windows-based application on Linux, the best way to do it is with Wine. Download the latest version of Wine from Wine HQ and install. Once installed, start Wine then install the program from there. Another way you can install a Windows-based program on Linux is with a virtual machine.

Since most applications are Windows-based, the easiest way to install it is under Windows environment and you can do this by creating a virtual machine. Visit the VirtualBox download page and download the version for Linux distros. Once installed, start VirtualBox then create and configure a virtual machine that will run Microsoft Windows.

Once the virtual machine is created, install a version of Microsoft Windows on that virtual machine. Before installing Microsoft Windows, check the system requirements of the program you want to install then among the supported operating systems, pick one and install it on the virtual machine. Once Windows is installed, install the program.
