Windows in the style of AmigaOS

In his article “Alternative user interface similar to Amiga for Windows”, the community member describes how he came up with the idea of ​​his own user interface for Windows 10 and Windows 11 in the aspect of AmigaOS.

I used to have a Commodore Amiga and I fondly remember that time. For this reason, I started programming a (actually) platform-independent Amiga Workbench over 2 years ago, which you can simply run on Windows.

After more than two years of development, Amiga Workbench is now so mature that “Silvester72” can offer version 1.0.0 first and now version 1.0.1 for download.

Amiga Workbench is a purely private, non-profit project. Download from the official website. it does not contain any additional software, installers or advertising.

The program is now very well developed and I recently put it on a private website. It can be started and ended like a normal application. But it is also possible to replace Windows Explorer if you want.
