Because Windows just works. And yeah I need non-open source software shock horror and I dislike Linux's "oh no your accidentally installing some proprietary software you silly billy don't worry I've prevented it".
But also it's really not my choice if the program I want to install doesn't actually work on Linux and does work on Windows then realistically I have to use Windows.
Linux never prevents you from installing anything. What distro was this and what happened? :)
