So with Windows 7 support at an end, and lots of users debating a switch to Linux Mint, it feels like a good time to share this (surprisingly simple) how to. And Linux Mint is the ideal starting point if you want to do that because it looks and behaves more like Windows than regular Ubuntu does. We’ve shown you how to make Linux Mint look like a Mac before so aping the appearance of a rival operating system while not to everyone’s tastes is something you already know is possible.īut we’ve never really touched on how to make this distro look like Windows. Take a full backup, or at the very least, create a system restore point before you begin.The screenshot you see above looks like it’s of Windows 7 but it’s actually just a Windows 7 theme for Linux Mint.
We suggest you back up your OS before using them, even if you're using a compatible build. Thus, you should avoid trying them on different builds, for they could render your OS unusable. Thankfully, that's easy with the proper tools.Ī note on compatibility: The tools we're using state they're compatible with Windows 10 Builds 1903-21H1. Beyond that, you can get even closer to the real Windows 11 visual experience.Īlthough it's impossible to fully recreate Windows 11 on Windows 10, tweaking the desktop elements with a more substantial visual impact can bring us quite close. You can already bring your Windows 10 desktop closer to Windows 11's by using some of its wallpapers. Combined, they make Microsoft's next OS look cleaner and sleeker than Windows 10. Windows 11 includes an assortment of tweaks to many of its visual elements.
Instead, you can tweak your existing Windows 10 installation to look like Microsoft's next Windows, as we'll see here. However, you don't have to illegally download the leaked, unstable, and unsupported version of Windows 11 to enjoy its new looks. Many who've tried a leaked version of the OS are praising Microsoft's cleaner and more streamlined new desktop. Unlike what Microsoft had initially stated, Windows 10 isn't "the final version of Windows." Windows 11 is coming soon, and apart from a collection of new features, it will also have a heavily tweaked desktop.
