Ubuntu's Nautilus could be coming to Windows 10 soon

Since Microsoft introduced the Linux subsystem within Windows 10, there have been many voices that assured the possibility of running Ubuntu applications and tools within Windows 10. Despite Microsoft insisting that Windows 10 was not based on Ubuntu but was a subsystem , Several users have demonstrated and succeeded in running the Ubuntu file manager on Windows 10.

We have to say that the resulting product is not as many of us would have liked, but it does open a small window of hope for Windows 10 users who want to run Ubuntu or Gnu / Linux tools.

The video that we show you is a video with a certain trap. Nautilus is running on Windows 10, however it does not do so natively but rather through several layers of emulation. These layers of emulation are executed thanks to the Linux subsystem of Windows 10. A subsystem that has caused a crack within Microsoft's operating system and that will undoubtedly soon make Ubuntu programs run on Windows 10.

Windows 10 could be compatible with Ubuntu's Nautilus and Gnome and be available to the end user

For those who are strangers to the name of Nautilus or the file manager, is a program that is responsible for managing and using the computer's files. The Windows 10 file explorer would be the equivalent of Nautilus, also called Explorer. An efficient and practical file manager, but it lacks some interesting tools such as tab management or a low consumption of operating system resources.

Por el momento we cannot predict the exact date of the arrival of Nautilus to Windows 10But there is no doubt that it will come sooner or later. However Will Nautilus only come to Windows 10 or so will Gnome? What do you think?
