    How Run Windows Application On Linux System

         
    Hi Guys, Linux users Increased day by day, But some users from them leave uses of Linux and again start using Windows OS.

    One of the reason I found i.e some software required by user to fulfill their requirement are not available in Linux OS, So they start moving towards Windows again.When I started using Linux OS I have also same problem but I was not leave used of Linux instead of them I try to find out solution. and finally I found out many solution.

    1, First Solution is we can use Virtual Machine, installed them in our Window OS and installed Linux OS in virtual machine But in case lot of problem like separate network configuration, copy paste problem between both OS.

    2. Second Solution is we dual boot our system but in case If I want to run software which is not available for Linux. So run that software first we have to close our Linux system and boot our system and start windows.

    3. Third Solution is use of Wine, according to me Wine is very good software for user who want to run windows software in Linux System.

    What is Wine

     1. Wine is not emulator so it does not required CPU emulation so over system will not run slow.
      
     2. Wine is not able to run new application because if new software come in market then it required      changes in Wine and It is also not run in 64 bit architecture.
      
     3. Software running on wine divided into three categories.
           
     PlatiunmApplications which install and run flawlessly on an out-of-the-box Wine                    installation

     Silver :- Applications with minor issues that do not affect typical usage 
       
    We can see all list of software that are compatible with wine from here https://appdb.winehq.org/
