Free Wine to run Windows online
OnWorks Ubuntu 20 online, our Ubuntu 20.04 LTS for you that was released on April 23, 2020, succeeding Ubuntu 19.10 as the latest stable release of this hugely popular Linux-based operating system .
SCREENSHOTS:
DESCRIPTION:
Wine is an implementation of the Windows Application Programing Interface (API) library, acting as a bridge between the Windows program and Linux. Think of Wine as a compatibility layer, when a Windows program tries to perform a function that Linux doesn't normally understand, Wine will translate that program's instruction into one supported by the system. For example, if a program asks the system to create a Windows pushbutton or text-edit field, Wine will convert that instruction into its Linux equivalent in the form of a command to the window manager using the standard X11 protocol.
Additionally OnWorks provides WineGUI on top of Wine. WineGUI is a piece of software which allows you to easily install and use numerous games and apps designed to run with Microsoft® Windows®.
Few games are compatible with GNU/Linux at the moment and it certainly is a factor preventing the migration to this system. WinGUI brings a cost-free, accessible and efficient solution to this problem.

- Support for running Win64, Win32 (Win 95/98, NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/7/8/8.1/10), Win16 (Win 3.1) and DOS programs
