What isn't ready yet

Windows mode is the newest part of Wild OS. Setup, installing programs, opening them as normal windows, pausing when idle, saving to disk, sound, licences and following your theme all work in test builds. These are still being built:

Feature For now
Keeping unsaved work through a shutdown Save your work in Windows programs before you shut down or restart.
Pausing Windows when the PC sleeps Close Windows programs before sleep if you can.
Camera and microphone in Windows programs Use the Linux versions of Zoom and Slack, or Teams as a Wild OS app, for calls.
Printing from Windows programs Save as PDF and print it from Wild OS.
Choosing which folders to share Documents, Downloads, Pictures and Desktop are shared.

Settings shows the options that aren’t ready yet so you can see where things are going, and says That setting isn’t available if you try one.

This page is updated as each one arrives.
