For the most part, in Windows (or Mac) you

Purchase software from your preferred retailer or download it from a website, run the installer, it places a shortcut on your desktop and Start menu, you double click the shortcut, and your program is running. At least in a perfect world that’s how it works. I am a windows technician so I know it is not always that straight forward, however Linux is no where near Windows.

Fact is Secuirty updates given Free if purchsed a license with Windows Daily.

Things get VERY confusing in Linux.
Does my distribution use .rpm or .deb packages? Am I using Gnome, KDE, another of the available GUI (Graphical User Interface) or no GUI? Do I need to install via the terminal? Does the software require any dependencies? Will the installation method used be able to install the dependencies?

Need I say more?

Remember these are just a few of the questions that I forced myself to learn the answers to in order to be a unsatisfied Linux user,
this is why billions of Online users will continue to pay for a license for Windows to get daily secuirty updates from microsoft.

This is 1 of many reasons why Linux will continue to fail for the general, every day user.
