Select UEFI and optionally UEFI Secure Boot Next we run Fusion and create a new VM using the "install from disc or image" option.
Follow the steps below to avoid the dreaded "this machine is not compatible with Windows 11" message because a (v)TPM is missing by default.įirst step is to acquire an ISO image which you can find here: Personally, when I am on the road, I am much happier carrying only a single laptop.I needed a Windows 11 VM to do some testing and since I currently don't have any Windows hardware anymore I decided to use VMware Fusion on my (intel) mac instead.
Now, if your workflow is such that some says you are at your desk working in Windows, and some days you are at your desk working in Mac, then two separate machines may be the best solution.
VM software makes it easy to switch back and forth between the two platforms for workflows that involve both Windows and Mac applications. VM software may cost less than a separate second machine. A single Mac based backup strategy can backup both platforms. If you are on the road, A single laptop weighs less than two laptops. It's trivial to share files between the two platforms when they are hosted on the same platform. There are conveniences to having them all on one machine, rather than split across two machines. It's a reasonable question to ask, and there are reasonable answers.Ĭonsider someone who needs to run a mix of Mac and Windows applications. With Windows PCs available for next to nothing, both new and refurb, with Windows pre-installed (you know Windows is not included with either emulator, right?), please, someone provide me with justification for not just buying a cheap PC to run your QuickBooks Pro, or some other application not available on MacOS? Sure you can do it, but in the words of my late mother, "JP, just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD." Mom was wise. It mystifies me as to why anyone would want to run Windows on a Mac, silicon or otherwise.
