The latest Ubuntu. I don't know how to find the version but that should be on the internet. I'm not sure what you mean by "desktop environment"... all I know it is the one that comes with Ubuntu.

Click the box of dots at the lower left. Then use the search option to find the new program. Then right click and select Add to Favorites. But sometimes the program just shows small icons. In that case there is no right click option ... I don't know what to do about that. An example is "Wine".
