Now, for the benefit of Mankind , Microsoft must release Linux/MacOS subsystem for Windows (Subsystem which is capable to run Windows applications in Linux/MacOS) .

I know Wine do exist, but it is not 100% Windows compatible. If they really care about us people, they must either release Windows subsystem for Linux/MacOS or contribute to wine to make it fully windows compatible.

Solely benefitting off Open Source Projects adding those to their closed system is not so nice imo , they must do it in other direction too.

Just imagine frustration to dualboot windows just because of one application which runs only in Windows.

On other hand, Just imagine the application running perfectly in subsystem in Linux/MacOS without any dual boot. Many wouldn't bother even if it's paid application imo.
