@SalemsLot FYI, I also discovered that #PowerPoint in #WinBoat is not working properly when a second screen is used...

Hace algún tiempo hablé por aquí de #WinBoat, que es un sistema de virtualización basado en Docker para ejecutar #Windows en #Linux.
Después de un tiempo probándolo, he de decir que va DE LUJO TOTAL. Parece hasta mentira lo bien que va. Solo lo he probado con Windows 10, que para lo que necesito tengo de sobra. Con 11 no sabría decir si va tan bien, habría que probarlo.
Es verdad que la instalación no es muy directa, hay que trastear un poco, pero bueno, bien vale la pena.

#CachyOS published its March 2026 ISO with animated desktop previews in the installer, #KDE Plasma 6.6.2, and one-click #Winboat Windows VM integration.
If you don’t know, Winboat lets users run a full Windows VM in a container using Docker/KVM and launch Windows applications so they appear as native windows on your Linux desktop. In other words it’s cool for people who want to continue using superior #Linux based Operating System but need/want Windows only app(s)

@Flaky Have you tried #winboat ?
It basically sets up a QEMU VM for you and uses RDP to make it so you can open windows app and it opens as a separate window(although there is desktop mode if you want). It works great on Niri in my experience.

@auinobackonlinux
I would recommend installing the Windows Office via https://www.winboat.app/
This will integrate in a linux Window very nicely and will give you access to the host filesystem. Just make sure to have an eye on Internet access, any successful Malware infection will have disk access as well.

Winboat startet nicht mehr? Mein Wechsel zu Dockurr

Eigentlich ist die Idee hinter #Winboat super, aber die Umsetzung scheint noch etwas instabil zu sein. Seit der Installation Anfang des Jahres lief es zwar, aber heute hat die Software komplett den Dienst verweigert. [...]
