10 Best free Operating system that you can install on your computer or laptop. Most people either have windows for Mac OS on their computer. If your computer comes with a digital license for the OS that it runs, then you already paid for the operating system.

Upgrading to the new edition (eg. from Windows 10 single language to Windows 10 Pro) requires acquiring a license key, which cost a handsome amount of money.

I assume you already knew Ubuntu (the Simplified, and overrated) and the Debian (Stable-again-simplified) it's time we talk about other free operating systems which includes some Linux distributions.

These operating systems are completely free to use, you don't have to purchase a license or pay to download and most are open source means you can view the whole operating system codes.

We'll start with good-looking and rich-features wise operating systems, then lightweight Linux distros.

1. Korora

Korora is a good looking free and open source Linux operating system. Very similar to Fedora but with some nifty options such as wallpaper shuffle, nice selection as far as wallpapers are concerned. Material design somewhat inspires the UI, and the functions are overall enough for an average user.

The top taskbar is minimal, elegant and looks really nice. From the right-side, you can manage volume level among other settings. Without a second thought, I'll advise anyone to try this Linux distro as this can be easily your best operating for your computer.

2. Cub Linux: [Discontinued]

Based on Linux, Cub Linux is similar looking to the Chrome OS (or Chrome OS forks). The Operating system is sanctified toward replicating the Chrome OS (Found in Chromebooks).

It has Chromium Browser as the main element of the operating system hardwired with the Chrome App Launcher.

Since it is based on Linux, you can install packages and use the terminal to do things as usually people do with Linux. Also, it's a kind of lightweight distro of Linux and can be used directly from a USB Drive, while you can make a persistence USB to save user data without the need to install on your Hard Drive.

Update: As I can see the official website is down you can visit their GitHub and SourceForge page to download builds. As far I think the project is discontinued which means no support from its community if you can compromise with future updates you can still try it. I mentioned it because it is worth to try, even now when its discontinued.

3. Ubuntu

The number one Linux distro of all the time. The newer Ubuntu builds have long-term support which makes it a reliable operating system. It does support video drivers and another driver according to your hardware. For instance, if you have Intel HD graphics, related drivers can be installed using the tool created explicitly for Linux by Intel. That's why if your concern is the graphics performance you should go with Ubuntu or the godfather 'Debian' to get graphics driver support. Latest build requires at least 2GB of RAM to function properly. If you're running on a low spec, check the rest distros.

4. Elementary OS

Os Download For Pc

It is designed to look and feels like the MAC OS. At least to me, this doesn't seem a Linux distro. Also, an open source project without any kind of ads and comes with a store to install packages. There is also a new release that is called Loki, and since it is in Beta, you should try that if you don't mind a bug or thousands. The stable builds are good if you want to start out with a good-looking Linux distro.

5. Antergos

Actually I kind of like this—I did install the OS just to experience and wrote about it, and trust Me I fall in love with it. I did test the Minimal version of the operating system. The minimal version ISO file is around 550+ MB which is a bandwidth saver and will support even older computers. Not much older computers maybe. Here is what supports older machines. (the Minimal ISO does require an internet connection to be installed on your computer, I'd suggest downloading the full ISO instead). When talking about the settings and file manager interface, they have quite more options. Also, the apps catalog somewhat reminds me the Start menu of Windows 7, I mean not UI wise.

6. Manjaro

Another user-friendly Linux distribution, have 3 flavors: XFCE (lightweight), KDE (rich-and-cool) and the Minimal net edition. It brings the Start Menu, and that is useful to find programs do other functions. There are also some other community editions, which means you have options, many flavors available maintained by different manjora team members. It's great that this is the only Linux distro offers options when it comes to appearances. And it's not quite common among other Linux based operating systems.

7. Zorin OS

Laptops

Zorin OS is one of the few Linux distros that I actually liked, It reminds and maybe the combination of the appearance of Windows 10 and Windows 7, but even better. You might have a rough time while installing graphics drivers as per your computer hardware, but there are tutorials about them. Despite, you'll get such a nice user interface, where most of the settings and functions are one or two clicks away. Such as the start menu contains the shortcut to Settings, software and power options. Sound like Windows 7, hell yeah. Overall the interface is decent and more of modern design. It comes with some apps like Chromium browser, Wine to play Windows apps, office, utilities and some games built-in.

8. Android OS for PC

Remix OS tried a high-profile attempt to bring the Android OS on computers but that didn't went very well, they've discontinued the project. It's a real bummer when a team promises to deliver 'lifetime' and 'stay-up-to-date' operating system fade like this. But Phoenix OS is still here, but the development is around the Chinese marketplace.

Android is also based on Linux Kernel but it is completely different from the typical Linux based operating systems and the major feature is that you can install apps and games from the Android web store aka Google play store. The good part? It's totally free os for PC so can install on as many as computers and be using it without worrying of any activation or license.

Android has a major stack in mobile operating system worldwide, but Android OS on computer is still underrated as users who run Android OS on the computer are less than 1%. Today mobile is capable of (sort of) doing everything that a computer does. So if you use an Android OS on your computer the learning curve is almost nothing since you are using Android on your phone or tablet.

To get started visit the Android-x86 website and from there grab a system Image (At this time nougat rc2 port is the latest) and burn it to a USB drive. Then boot from it to use Android OS on your normal computer and you'll be amazed to see all those android apps running apps on your laptop screen. The Android-x86 provides near-to-stock android experience but other project such as Phoenix OS provides better desktop experience.

jide's Android OS for PC created a hype among internet users that they can install a useable android operating system on their computer but soon they discontinued the project. After a short time, another similar project took place and are still supported and gets updated often. The worthy mention is Phoenix OS which simulates a Windows similar desktop interface including Taskbar, start menu and action center like features. However, The Phoenix OS has some Chinese bloatware that I was unable to uninstall as they appear as soon as when you try to remove them. Hopefully, with new version there is less bloatware and better stability and support for more hardware.

Compatibility wise both remix and Phoenix OS do not support wide range of hardware, but on the other hand be original Android x86 Port does support a wide range of hardware including older computer. So if you are unable to run Phoenix OS then try Android x86 build (not to mention that the older port will be more stable on old hardware). While both projects are not totally open-source but consider them free os for pc just like the parent project.

There are these other projects like bliss OS which offers little functionalities like Taskbar and navigation buttons meanwhile keeping the original stock Android experience. ||

9. Chrome OS for PC

You can load unofficial Chrome operating system on your computer and have a taste of what's it like owning a Chromebook. Chrome OS is elegant and powerful and lets you focus on your work.

Google's Chrome OS is also built on Linux Kernel and optimized with user-level software and user-friendly desktop environment that eventually uses chrome browser and chrome apps. You obviously can't install the official chrome os if you don't have a Chromebook, but there are several unofficial forks of Chrome OS goes by many names, one which is arnoldthebat project that you can download and boot using a USB drive.

If you want to hop in, check this Chrome OS installation guide to install it on your normal computer or laptop. At this time, specific features like running Android apps are limited to some Chromebooks. But that's ok, because if you solely want to run android apps there are Android operating system as well.

The good part about Chrome OS is that you'd won't miss your old operating system because there are so many Chrome extensions for almost everything. You need a VPN chrome store has it, you need a grammar checker, the store has that as well. So yeah, overall Chrome OS can be a good option to dump your typical Operating system, surely there is a learning curve that eventually it'll become easy to adapt to the Chrome OS because the key feature is the Chrome Browser which we all love to use.

There are also options when you want to install an unofficial Chrome OS port on your computer, these are some of the options you can start with.

10. Solus

Requirements: 2GB of RAM for optimal experience and 64-bit CPU architecture.

It comes in three desktop flavors which are Bungie, Gnome, and Mate. The Bungie is for modern computers, GNOME offers balanced desktop experience, Mate can be used on older hardware. So all of these flavors are around 1.2–1.3 GB in size. So it is just a Linux based operating system but you will get better functionalities and different user interface and it is far easier to get used to it rather than Ubuntu and other distributions.

I would like to mention another Linux operating system which goes by 'PoP_OS' a very developer friendly Desktop Environment but you will fall in love with this operating system even if you are not a developer, it is so beautiful that I find myself using it in the weekend.

For a new user maybe all the Linux distributions are same, in fact, they are. You should try more than one Linux distro before settling on to one, the more you'll try, the more chance you'll find a better one. Don't stick. Try more and more.

That's all for now, in coming days more Linux guides will be published. So stay tuned, Stay happy.

One such downside of custom Linux distributions is that you can't install or maybe a hard time finding and installing graphics drivers according to your computer. This is not a major issue with some top distros like Ubuntu and Debian and Fedora. Feel free to spend hours, days or even month exploring the Linux.

All of the operating systems are totally free to download and use and can be directly booted from a USB drive. our pick for the best free os for pc is definitely Android OS projects because they are easy to use, supports thousands of Android Apps and games from the Play store.

Are you done with MAC, Windows 10 and Linux OS? Isn't there any free OS for PC (operating system) apart from these 3 giant OS? And if there are other operating systems, which one is good and free to use? Any good and totally free operating system for my computer?

Today we have written this article to answer these questions. this is so true that most of the people use either Windows or MacOS and they are not free. Although, Windows 10 comes pre-loaded with many laptops with activation detailed soldered in the BIOS. So when you Fresh install that same Windows 10 variant it will automatically get activated. But when you install another version of Windows it won't work at all and it left you with only option to buy a windows license. Despite the fact that the number of pirated Windows users are very high that Microsoft even admitted that 'Only 1 out of 10 Windows computer is genuinely activated' but cracking Windows with 3rd party tool is dangerous as most of them are fake, bloatware, viruses and does nasty stuff to your computer.

1. Prime OS – the newcomer

Download PrimeOS (external link) | Dual boot PrimeOS (Quickfever article) Android 7, DecaPro Keymapping.

Prime OS is an operating system that gives full desktop experience just like Mac and Windows. Combines the best of Android and computer features and the output is incredible. You are seeking a gaming Android operating system you should check this out. The special thing about it is deca-key mapping for gamers. Read our in-depth review on PrimeOS

Sure, PUBG Mobile is on-trend and players have been using Android Emulators which doesn't do justice to the game performance, the lag problem goes away when you use Android as an operating system on your computer. Also, It does not change aspects and aesthetics which is a good thing, we don't require something heavily modded like MIUI.

2. Phoenix OS – for everyone

Download Phoenix OS | Android 7 Dual boot guide

Phoenix OS was released shortly after the publication of the Remix OS. At the time it went popular, especially because it was the only Android operating system to work on 32-bit machines. PhoenixOS is a great Android operating system, which is probably because of features and interface similarities to the remix operating system. Both 32-bit and 64-bit computers are supported, new Phoenix OS only supports x64 architecture. It is based on the Android x86 project. It has many good features if you want to play games like PUBG Mobile.

The Phoenix OS installer makes it easier to install the operating system on your hard drive/USB drive. This is an only android x-86 fork that currently offering updates and hopefully, they will continue to do so in the future. This is one Android operating system for the computer which is based on Android 7. The downside is annoying ads and built-in apps.

3. Android-x86 project

Download Android-x86 | Android 9

Android x86 is the project to port AOSP-Android for x86 machines. The project plays a very significant role in all the mentioned Android operating systems. If you want a lightweight android operating system without customization, install android OS build from here. You'll get the same key features and interface seen on a real Android smartphone.

If you lack good computer hardware you can test the KitKat/Marshmallow x86 build which is 350+MB image file you can burn into a USB to create bootable media. After, simply boot and use the Android OS. Also android-x86 ports of Android Lollipop and Marshmallow you can use in computers with moderate hardware.

Note: For most users, the 64-bit version should just work fine, people with the single onboard processor can use the x86_64 build.

4. Bliss OS – latest x86 fork

Download Bliss OS | Android 10

Blisspop is pure Android x86 ports but with few modifications like the taskbar and system stability. You can also launch apps in Windowed mode rather than the full-screen which helps opening two or more apps side by side. A note about Openthos and Bliss OS: When testing both OS failed to boot over UEFI firmware, they run successfully when Legacy mode was turned on from the BIOS settings. So if you have a computer with only UEFI firmware you maybe not be able to boot both of the Android Operating systems from a bootable media device.

But if you insist and like to test them you can use a virtual machine software to run them on the operating system you are using. Some of the modern computers might have support for Legacy mode, but you need to enable it from the BIOS settings. So technically if you are running on Windows 8 or newer your computer probably has support for UEFI firmware in you might face problems booting these two so check in your BIOS settings if you can find Legacy mode and enable it.

For people who care less about highly modified Android OS under a Windows look-alike skin but still want some usability features should try this.

5. FydeOS – Chrome OS + Android

Download FydeOS | Chromium OS with Android App support, 64-bit only. Use Eicher tool to make bootable USB.

FydeOS is based on chromium fork to run on Intel computers. Version 10.x runs on running on Chromium r83 (I tested) and supports Android Apps. Despite you won't find play store as it was mainly focused on the Chinese market where Google services are banned. Still, you can sideload Android apps or even install the Google Play Store.

Since the last time we checked, it made lots of progress and booted quickly. Sadly 32-bit machine owner won't be able to boot this operating system. You can choose a Google Account to login to sync your Chrome Browser data. To install Android Apps, open 'Android App' from shelf (app drawer) it'll ask for an agreement after that you can just download .apk file and open them to install.

6. OpenThos – ahh IDK

Project abandoned and unknown status | Download OpenThos

Openthos is new, and it supports Android apps and Linux apps in multi-windows. For this to run your computer's CPU should be 64-bit architecture. Getting the ISO file of this operating was a task itself. First, you have to go through the link and enter the password, and later you need Baidu client software where you need to create an account (which is also problematic because everything will be in Chinese) then you can download the operating system image. Moreover, tested in the Legacy mode as it failed to boot in UEFI mode. If you really want to test put android OS on your computer, you may probably want Phoenix OS or something near stock-like Android x86. OpenThos vision is good on paper but still, it has not achieved a great user experience just yet.

Remix OS (Dead)

Download Remix OS & review

[Marshmallow, discontinued] Remix OS — the first best Android operating system is released in 2016 by Jide. It was the discussion topic because of its similarities to Windows 10: the taskbar, notification system, etc. Remix OS supports both 32-bit and 64-bit computer architecture and can be easily installed whether PC is UEFI-based or Legacy. If you want a great Android operating system, then Remix OS will work best. For starters, you have to make a bootable USB remix OS so you can directly boot and run on a computer. Then if you wish to keep running it from USB, you can do so by creating persistence USB that will allow running this Android operating system from a USB drive. Otherwise installing it on the hard disk is a better option when you solely want to have this as your primary operating system.

Remix was probably the greatest Android OS until it was pulled off and discontinued. You can still use this operating system by downloading its system image, but you need to know that you will be using a system released back in 2016 with no future updates.

Bonus: Android 5 and 6 (android x86)

Android 5.1 for x86 fork: download and Android 6 download

If you have limited resources try the Android lollipop or marshmallow forks of Android-x86 project. Android Lollipop is known to be the best fork available for x86 machines and popular Android emulators like LDPlayer run on version 5.1. To boot Android version 5 Android OS fork on your computer, download appropriate ISO file using links below and use Rufus to create bootable media. Used mac software for sale.

Try Android Emulator; LDPlayer

Gaming Android Emulator for PC | Android Emulator

LDplayer is an emulator to play online android games like PUBG Mobile and Call of duty. You would love to emulate the Android environment on your Windows computer when you have good hardware. It is possibly an amazing Emulator for playing PUBG mobile. Tested on an i5 (Gtx 1060) computer, it was able to run the game at 60fps, HDR extreme graphics, and 2K resolution. This is the best you can get from this game. Because it is a royale battle game, you may notice frame drops at certain times.

Other Options

Virtual Machines are much like emulators as they help you test any Android operating system in a simulated environment. You control resources like CPU and RAM to allow. For instance, you can select how much RAM and disk space to assign along with the CPU cores. VirtualBox and VMWare are some favorite free Virtual Machines. It is always good to test, and operating systems for you to use on your computer too quickly to know if you're good to go with it.

Starting with a virtual machine is quite easy, first, download any of the Android OS ISO and save it from your on your computer. Open up your favorite Virtual Machine software and create a new environment and select the ISO image as a boot image. Please understand that installing an Android operating system on a virtual machine is not the best idea if plan to do intense tasks including Gaming.

Also, PUBG mobile players with emulators deal with game lag, screen tearing so it'll be super awesome if you play these games on the Android operating system. Emulators only take a percentage of computer resources and won't be able to give you a smooth Android experience.
