We've compiled a guide on how to download and install Winux, install software, use a printer, share files, set up a WordPress site on your local machine, and migrate email accounts to Thunderbird.
The default email client on Winux is Thunderbird. If you use Thunderbird on another computer, you can migrate your email account information to Thunderbird on Winux.
However, since you’ll need to enter your email account passwords manually, it might be faster to simply set up new accounts from scratch if you have only a few email accounts.
To set up a local WordPress environment on Winux, install Apache, PHP 8.5, and MariaDB, then create a WordPress database in MariaDB. If there is no wp-config.php file, copy wp-config-sample.php and rename it, then edit wp-config.php using a text editor.
Access localhost/wordpress in your browser and configure WordPress.
To set up a printer on Winux, first download the drivers and utilities from your printer manufacturer’s website and install them.
Add the printer through the settings and verify that it works by printing a test page.
Winux uses Dolphin as its file manager, and Samba comes pre-installed. You can configure nearly all file-sharing settings via the GUI. Simply select the folder you want to share, set a password and permissions, and open the Samba port in your firewall. When accessing the folder from another PC, use the Samba password you set.
Winux (Windowsfx, Linuxfx) uses the KDE desktop, and you can install most software from the "Discover" icon on the taskbar.
In this article, we introduced 10 different software applications.
To install Winux (Windowsfx, Linuxfx), first download the Winux ISO image and create a live USB drive. Insert the live USB drive, turn on your PC, and proceed with the installation. After installation, update the system to the latest version and enable the firewall using gufw.
Using Zorin Connect, you can pair with a smartphone on the same local network and quickly send files such as photos over the network.
In Zorin OS 18.1 Core, a tile pattern drops down from the top when you move a window, but you can turn this feature off in Zorin Appearance.
To use a printer in Zorin OS 18.1, download and install the necessary files, such as drivers, from the manufacturer’s website.
Add your printer in the Printers tab of Settings.
