Chromebooks run on ChromeOS, which includes features such as the customizable Home Launcher for app organization, the Quick Insert button for integrating various elements into documents, and three-finger tab swipes for efficient multitasking in the Chrome browser. The Welcome Recap feature provides a daily overview of tasks, while Select to Search allows users to highlight text or images for immediate contextual information. Additionally, ChromeOS simplifies the process of pinning files to the taskbar compared to Windows.
