How to Use Alienware GUI
A graphical user interface (GUI) is a set of menus and graphical elements that allows a user to easily interact with a computer. Almost every operating system has a GUI, except for some light operating systems designed for servers, which still rely on command lines. Even though the GUI is part of the operating system and has little to do with hardware components, some computer manufacturers, such as Alienware, developed their own GUI to customize their computers. The Alienware GUI comes installed by default on all Alienware PCs, but it can also be installed on regular PCs.
