Support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?

guess it will -create a partition -deploy an kubuntu image on it -copy user files over
the hard part here is having a spare disk/spare disk space where you can deploy. and maybe getting it to boot into grub directly, because your bios will be pointing to windows
It’s certainly no small feat making it seem that seamless. Maybe one day it’ll be possible to change the ISO it installs, so instead of Kubuntu it’s another distro.
looking at the video it seems to work nearly as i expected. (changing the iso shouldn’t be much of an issue) although i think it’s a nice project, i don’t think it’s worth taking too much effort on this. “Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime” - you can teach a 10yo to install linux on any machine… it’s not that hard.
The installation isn’t that big of an issue, no. Except for disabling secure boot, if needed. But then there’s the way you have to install it which is via an USB stick that you have to format and write the ISO to. As trivial as it sounds, I think that’s the hard part. And Operese takes that out of the equation.
Download Rufus, Download ISO, klick klick. Not that hard either. But I get your point.
In reality people unfortunately don’t want to try Linux.
Or Ventoy, after installation it’s just as easy as copying the ISO over to the USB stick.
But if all you know is recognize the “Internet icon” (as my parents called the browser haha), then it certainly seems challenging.
