Run Windows apps

Winnux Bridge lets you run verified Windows applications directly in Winnux, without technical knowledge of Wine or compatibility layers.

How it works

For each Windows app, Winnux shows one of the following statuses:

• Linux version available — Recommended
• Linux alternative available — Recommended
• Works in Winnux — Run via Bridge
• Works with limitations — Some features missing
• Does not work yet — Not compatible

Install a Windows app

1. Open Winnux Store or Winnux Bridge
2. Search for the app
3. If status is "Works in Winnux", click "Install via Bridge"
4. Winnux Bridge handles Wine/Proton configuration automatically
