@201853910 Well, I'm going to start off with describing to you what Linux is. So, Linux is a bit like Windows. It's a big computer program that lets you run other, smaller computer programs like Google Chrome and Office. In fact, it looks a lot like Windows, too. What makes Linux so special is that compared to Windows, it's safer and more reliable.

There are thousands of people and companies who work on Linux, trying to make it better. They do this for free, and they allow it to be downloaded by ordinary people like yourself, without charge. This is because they use it themselves
So,, and they benefit from having an operating system that's fast, rarely crashes, and is at less at risk of being hacked or infected with a virus.

Also, there are a lot of types of Linux. I'll tell you some below:

There's Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Ubuntu, FreeBSD, NomadBSD, etc. So, onto the complicated stuff.

So, the whole point of this post is that I'm trying to use the best software that I know, which is VMware, and I'm trying to run Windows 10 on it so I can run a game which my laptop by itself cannot run. But it dosen't work. So, I do know another software that I know, which is called Oracle VirtualBox that I could try. But before that, do you know any other software that I could use for VMs?

First of all, I don't use Linux. The Linux system I am using, such as deepin.
You can try to use this system, which I personally feel is very easy to use.

As for why I don't use VMware on Linux, maybe it doesn't have a Chinese version interface.
As you know, my English is very poor, including the current replies, which are all translation software.

To be honest, playing games on virtual machines is something I can't imagine. Because the performance of the virtual machine is not high.

You can also try libvirt. But it's mostly for developers and VM farms that prefer open source solution.Though there is associated GUI for it but it's not stable enough and some advanced thing can't be configured from it.
