        There’s some distributions that are windows-like, if you want that you can try Linux Mint. But some DEs like Gnome approach desktop use very differently and does away entirely with plenty of windows designs.

          No KDE or Gnome theme will bring drivers for software and hardware that is only working on Windows, unfortunately.

            drivers for software

            That’s not a thing.

            theme brings drivers

            Gnome and kde don’t bring drivers, they bring a compositor. The drivers come from LINUX and other packages like MESA which are distro agnostic.

            only working on Windows

            OS compatibility is in the hands of the engineers and developers, or more accurately in the hands of corporations that will go where there’s money. If you want shit to work on linux, you need to use linux.

                Yes. Linux on desktop is by design modulable, you grab parts from plenty of different packages and put them together to make a distribution. Gnome and KDE are just packages, large ones with plenty of dependencies to be sure, but just packages. Here’s gnome package on arch, do you see any driver?

          Even more using Q4OS, it’s maybe one of the most Windows like, it has even an Windows installer, making it even easier to change.
