    I’ve been on mint for a while. Here’s a tip for anyone who needs some windows apps that won’t work in Linux.

    VM workstation 17 is free and is fast as balls. With plug and play pass through too.

      Why would you want that on Linux? We already have qemu KVM which can be used via libvirt. Just install virtual manager and be done with it.

      The speed you are seeing is the same as KVM

        Slow down. VMware can be one click and done. All these alternatives and extras and configurations are the reason windows people don’t try Linux. Don’t over complicate a simple thing. If they want new or more they can figure that out at a later date.

          VMware is much harder to setup as it requires additional setup

          You just install virt-manager and reboot. That’s it.

          sudo apt install virt-manager
