  • UEFI was made in 2006 so I don’t think your friend needs to worry about that. Whatever distro you choose will take care of it for her.

    I’m not sure about an app that downloads isos, but I think that Rufus is generally the recommended iso writer for Windows. After downloading the iso on your own it’ll take care of everything else.

    I believe MATE generally targets lower end hardware. Which isn’t to say that your friend can’t use it, but as a person who’s used to modern operating systems, I think they’d probably be happier on KDE, Gnome, or Cosmic (or Cinnamon if you choose Mint)
