No version does, directly. Linux isn’t Windows. You can run some Windows applications using WINE. For most applications you use in Windows, there is a Linux alternative. For instance, you can use OpenOffice instead of Microsoft Office. See here: http://www.openoffice.org
You can also choose to dual boot and have Windows and Linux installed on the same machine.
The best distro for new users (or any for that matter) is Ubuntu. It has the largest hardware and community support, and it’s updated every six months with a new version.
If you really need to, you can run Windows INSIDE of Linux like I’ve done here in this short vid:

I’m not sure, but there is a program – look into "WINE".
