Description

Moving From Windows to Linux Mint course. With Microsoft’s security support for Windows 10 ending on October 14, 2025, many computers will not be eligible to run Windows 11. In this situation, the owners of these computers can use Linux as an alternative operating system and continue working with their computers. Linux is a free and open source operating system that has high security and no sharing of personal information. This operating system is the basis of the Android operating system and is widely used in servers and websites. There are various distributions (“distros”) of Linux, and at this time Linux Mint was chosen due to its ease of use for new Linux users. The learnings of this course can be applied to other Linux distributions such as Elementary OS, Zorin, Pop! OS and … will also be usable.

What you will learn in this course:

Advantages of Linux operating system
Install Linux Mint and use it on a “live” USB drive for evaluation
Permanent installation of Linux Mint as a second operating system (dual boot) alongside Windows
Install additional apps using System, Snap, Flatpak, and AppImage
