Microsoft's software is malware, we urge all Windows users to switch to a free GNU/Linux distribution as soon as possible.
Here is a list of popular free software applications that run on Microsoft Windows — along with the proprietary applications they replace. If you are still a Windows user, you can take a first step towards free software by installing these applications.
When we say these application programs are free software, we're talking about freedom, not price. It means that you are free to use these programs constructively, either alone or in a community, while respecting the freedom of others. The source code is available, so that you can study the software, adapt it to your needs, fix bugs, and release versions with new features. You can also convince or pay others to do these things for you. You are also free to give away and free to sell copies, under the terms of the applicable free software license. These programs are free software because you have freedom in using them. Free software develops under the control of its users.
Gnu Image Viewer App
Microsoft Windows is a clear and instructive example of nonfree software. Its source code is a secret, so programmers cannot learn from it, fix it, adapt it to their clients (your) needs, or even verify what it really does. If you share copies with your neighbors, you will be called a 'pirate', and users have been threatened with imprisonment for this. Nonfree software is completely controlled by its developer, who also has power over the users. We started the free software movement because this power is unjust.
Using free software on Microsoft Windows (or any nonfree operating system) is the first step towards freedom, but it does not get you all the way there. You're still under Microsoft's power as long as you use Windows.
However, on this page we're concerned with the first step.

- This is a selection of the more common free software applications available for the Microsoft Windows platform, and is nothing like a comprehensive list. You may want to check the Runs-on/Windows category for more software. Windows-only programs may be listed here as well but has external links since the Directory only includes program entries for GNU systems.
- Included in the operating system and usually not possible to remove.
- Mozilla branded programs such as Firefox and Thunderbird are not free software unless their names are changed. This is due to Mozilla's trademark policy that forbids selling copies of unmodified executables.
- GNU IceCat (Mozilla Firefox ESR fork) dropped Windows support after version 38.8.0.
- Recommends nonfree software.

The Shotwell open-source image viewer and organizer that is installed by default in various GNU/Linux distributions has been recently updated to version 0.27, a major release that adds numerous improvements and fixes annoying bugs.
Shotwell 0.27 is now the latest stable release of the application, and some of the best new features included are faster color transformations, a configurable image background, --fullscreen/-f command-line option for the viewer, as well as histogram and thumbnailer improvements.
There's also support for the Meson build system, something that most apps from the GNOME Stack are getting these days, and it looks like Shotwell 0.27 finally removes the F-Spot import support. The VAAPI blacklisting was updated as well for the new video thumbnailer and new plugin structure.
GTK+ 3.18 or later is now required
Other noteworthy improvements included in Shotwell 0.27 include a new command-line utility to allow users to test image transformations, Tumblr support was moved to the default plugin set, the import functionality was improved a bit by removing unnecessary memcpys.
Gnu Image Viewer Software
A new option has been added to install the Ubuntu Apport hook, importing of NTFS-backed vboxfs was improved, and GTK+ 3.18 or later is now required for building Shotwell. It also looks like several dialogs were split from the shotwell.ui file and a few other small issues were resolved.
Several translations were also updated and you should check the full changelog attached below for more details on all the changes included in Shotwell 0.27. In the meantime, you can download the source tarball right now from our website if you want to compile the application on your GNU/Linux distribution.
We also recommend that you keep an eye on the main repositories of your favorite Linux-based operating system for the updated version in case you're not into compiling apps from sources.
