edit for spelling.
there are a few videos on you tube that can walk you through how to make Zorin look like Win 11 or 10 or what ever you would want it to look like linux has no restrictions to what you can make it look like...unlike windows....
First, open Zorin Appearance and choose the W11 Layout. For Themes and Icons:

Why would you want to? Just curious. We like having something simpler and more aesthetically pleasing and user friendly. I am not the biggest fan of Mint Cinnamon because it looks and works too much like Windows 10.
I'm testing ZorinOS 18 Pro. I have to use Widows 11 at my office. But for my home computers I'd like to use ZorinOS. I'd like my home ZorinOS to look and feel as close to Win11 as possible. Any suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks for you time.

Hi James. I can't think of any advice that Ponce hasn't already given you.
Appearance is one thing, but trying to make Zorin act like Windows 11 is another. In fact, you may end up frustrated by trying to do so.
Zorin is not intended to be a Windows 11 clone only minus the ads, forced updates, new "features" and spyware. It is designed to be a "five-star" bridge from Windows (or Mac) to Linux. To me as a Windows user, logging into Zorin the first time felt different and familiar - both - at the same time. Nice interface. Things mostly where I expected them to be. Icons look and act as expected. There is a "Z" logo at the lower left which is comparable to a Windows logo.. etc. etc.. The look and feel helped me to quickly orient and start learning the new operating system.
