She knows Windows. I have thought of asking again but Linux isn't exactly known for user friendliness, no matter the distro and WM.

I agree with using FOSS when feasible.

I have not tried Linux Mint though I have been thinking about it for a long time. My best bet is to make the experience so close that she doesn't have to do anything different. She's a bit burned out on all my tinkering.

I have Linux Mint installed with the Windows theme and Windows style cursor. It looks almost identical to Windows. A screenshot of a Linux Mint desktop themed to look like Windows 10. three open windows showcase Steam, the file manager, and Firefox opened to YouTube.
