But VirtualBox merely displays a clunky-looking menu, with an unhelpful cartoon picture of a penguin with a toolbox, and leaves you to figure out what to do next. Parallels even gives you download links for Windows and open-source systems.
Both guide you through the steps needed to create a new virtual machine. Then you must restart and run VirtualBox again.īy contrast, rival apps Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion have different setup systems. The installer sends you to the Apple System Preferences app to grant permission to a VirtualBox extension that lets your guest Windows system exchange data with your host Mac system. Next, you run the installer package from the downloaded disk image. To get the app, you download the installation disk image from. VirtualBox's code is maintained by Oracle, hence the complete name Oracle VM VirtualBox.
I'll list some alternative methods for running Windows apps on Apple Silicon at the end of this review. I recommend Jamie Bainbridge's advice above.If you have an Apple Silicon Mac, don't even think about using VirtualBox, because it won't run at all on an M1-based Mac, not even with Apple's Rosetta 2 translation layer that makes many Intel-based apps run on Apple Silicon. VMware products are obviously made by VMware, and it is best to address VMware product concerns with VMware, perhaps in their forums. People can certainly reply to this thread, however, Red Hat does not maintain Oracle VirtualBox. Please let Oracle know your request for update. It is up to Oracle to decide to dedicate time/resources etc to make VirtualBox work with non-intel Apple hardware. Note: Virtualbox is made by Oracle (originally Sun Microsystems, which Oracle bought a long while ago).
For VMware products, see VMware discussions it seems they intend at some point to make it work with non-intel apple hardware also see this please consult the VMware community and website.Oracle Virtualbox discussion forum for Mac OSX.Please see this article saying why non-intel macs cannot currently run Virtualbox.Please see replies by Oracle Virtualbox forums.
