From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Also you could try a software named "Bottles" (https://usebottles.com/download/ ).
It has a pretty simple GUI and you can click your configs together.
At first you have to define a "bottle" which simply represents an virtual environment for your Windows-Application or Game.
You can define which Windows Version you want to create and it asks you, if it is a Desktop-App or a Game you want to run. And based on that it will create an environment prepared for your Individual situation.
It also supports proton.
