“Any other XP free replacement suggestions other than basic Ubuntu?”

Try Linux Mint running the Mate desktop. Mint takes a few rough edges off Ubuntu. I am curious though, what command line entries you had to enter - I never had to unless making some major changes from the default Ubuntu menu interface.

I never had to unless making some major changes from the default Ubuntu menu interface.

That was it. I tried installing BitDefender Free and realized that Zorin 8.1 is still not a good-enough replacement for XP to suit many of the XP users I deal with. That was the first program I tried to install and figured it would be difficult (for XP users) to install some other (non-standard) programs in the future.
