ReactOS: a free and open source operating system, compatible with Windows
#1
 
ReactOS is a free and open source operating system, designed to provide a free and compatible alternative to Windows software. Launched in 1996, ReactOS aims to provide an operating system that is compatible with Windows, while being free of any intellectual property restrictions.


The ReactOS operating system uses the Microsoft Windows NT kernel, and is therefore compatible with most applications and drivers designed for Windows. This allows users to benefit from an environment that is familiar and compatible with existing software and hardware, while being free and open source.

ReactOS is constantly evolving, with regular updates and new features. It offers a Windows-like user interface, with a desktop, icons and Start menu, as well as features such as multiple language support, web browsing, media playback and more.


ReactOS is an interesting alternative for those who are looking for a free and open source operating system, but want to benefit from compatibility with existing software and hardware.

I feel the same way. Sometimes I wonder if they haven't found a new way to suck our blood out in some sneaky way
