Zorin OS 17.3, the newest point release of this Ubuntu-based OS, continues to target users migrating from Windows, particularly those unable to upgrade to Windows 11. The update retains many older components while bringing in new features and app updates. Notably, it simplifies the app installation process by identifying third-party installers and recommending native Linux alternatives, while promoting compatibility for Windows applications through WINE. The extensive customizations in GNOME and the Zorin Appearance app enhance the user experience, offering layouts that mimic Windows versions, thus making it a visually appealing option for newcomers.
If you attempt to download an app directly from the website, Zorin OS identifies the installer and suggests a native Linux version from the Software Store.
The latest Zorin OS version targets Windows users transitioning to Linux, providing familiar app installation methods and an interface resembling Windows.
Zorin OS has extensive customizations to GNOME, making it Windows-like, and offers easy layout switching with the Zorin Appearance app.
Zorin OS 17.3 is a free upgrade for anyone running a previous 17.x release, maintaining a balance of older components and new features.
