I have some software that doesnt work with wine or anything else the like Ive tried, and doesnt seem to have a linux equivalent that I can find. Ive only been using linux a few months now, so maybe theres some other options that Im missing, but how else does one deal with that apart from booting back into the old windows install whenever I need that specific software?

i have a windows dual boot only for adobe and fl in case i ever wanna use it again. im 99.9% on linux nowadays (except at work)

Sorry but using less Windows via dual boot setup > Not using Linux at all.

Whatever works for people is the right choice.

It’s technically there on a separate drive entirely, but I haven’t touched it in at least a year. Probably gonna have to when I need to brush up for my cert renewal though

Run Windows in a VM

Any software that doesn't work work in a VM doesn't deserve to work at all

Naw, separate machines. One for VR, opening my office Access files, the Adobe suite. And another one with Linux I use for most everything. Dual booting is sometimes problematic.

It only ever exists as a VM, and I boot it up rarely as it deserves this purgatory.

I remember one time after checking out Ubuntu when I went back to Windows, my PC would ask if I wanted to boot into Windows or Windows.

Windows to my linux partition:

(this is why I wont dual boot)

The drive isn't even hooked up I swear!
