What you ask for is a technical impossibility. If you want Windows, then
use it, but it will never be Ubuntu, because making Windows Ubuntu-like
would mean that Microsoft would need to open up their source code, which
they are completely unwilling to do, and the Unix design is also not in
line with Microsoft's design principles. If you want Ubuntu, then use
it, but it will never be Windows-like, since it's actually Unix-like,
and changing this isn't in their plans. If you want a Windows-like OS
that isn't Windows, then your only option is ReactOS, but it has been in
an alpha stage of development for many years, and I haven't even been
able to find a way to make NVDA run on it yet. In any case, I'm not sure
that trying to turn Linux into Windows or Windows into Linux is actually
on topic for this list.
