Win4BSD Pro Desktop

 

Win4BSD Pro Desktop allows FreeBSD/PC-BSD users to run Windows applications and desktop from the safety and security of their BSD desktop, completely eliminating the need to dual-boot or keep additional hardware just to use their remaining Windows applications.


ImageIndividuals and organizations wishing to use FreeBSD/PC-BSD can now also use the Windows legacy applications which until now have been unavailable to the BSD Desktop user.
  • Win4BSD Pro Desktop runs as a well-behaved FreeBSD/PC-BSD process sharing BSD memory and the file system without surrendering control to the Windows guest operating system.
  • Because of the FreeBSD highly stable architecture, PCs are no longer at the mercy of Windows viruses and other malware.
  • A system failure or security flaw in Windows is limited to only the virtual sandbox which contained the Windows problems. Windows malfunctions are now insulated from causing system-wide failures.
  •  Win4BSD Pro Desktop allows you to run your favorite Windows applications on the BSD Desktop in Windows; this allows you to take advantage of the secure BSD environment and still continue to use your Windows applications.
  • The stability, security, and administrative capabilities of BSD are now partnered with the Windows applications on which you have still depend, allowing you to have the best of both worlds.
