If you are coming from Windows, I do highly recommend the Cinnamon desktop.
With Linux, you get more choices... which can bring confusion because you aren't used to that with Windows.
The Cinnamon desktop environment is one of perhaps six major desktop environment options, with many more less used options available, too.
Cinnamon is the desktop environment developed by Linux Mint, so is default with that, but you can install and use it easily on many Linux "distos" (distributions of software that are bundled together).
Linux Mint Debian Edition is a good place to get started.
