    ISO download from Microsoft directly. Use Rufus to make an installer USB. Click the “I do not have a license key” option. Who cares about the watermark.

    Like using a puncture repair kit and duct tape to fix a condom after sex.

    Just put one of the Linux distros on it that look like Windows. Install LibreOffice and lookalike programs.

    And No, I don’t care why you think you can’t use Linux.
