The installation process is similar to VMware Fusion, as is the price. Before you start, make sure you have some time to allocate to this procedure. It could take you an hour or so to install Windows and set everything up.
Here we go! Download and install VMware Fusion. If you have purchased a copy of VMware Fusion, enter the license code during the installation process. Start the VMware Fusion application by double-clicking its icon in the Applications folder. You should see the window shown below. Configure the settings for your Windows hard drive. VMware Fusion will only allocate as much space as is required by Windows, so the number you specify is the maximum amount of space that Windows can use.
Space cannot be reclaimed. If you install an application in Windows and then remove it, the virtual machine file does not shrink. It takes care of most of the installation headaches associated with Microsoft Windows. Just enter your name, a password, and your Windows Product Key. This feature is a bit buggy, and think twice before enabling read and write permissions. If your virtual machine gets a virus, it could wreck havoc on your Mac!
If all goes well, your virtual machine will startup from the Windows installation CD and start installing Windows. After installing critical files, the virtual machine will restart and… install some more files. Be patient! Windows will take some time to configure itself. Windows will require another restart. After your virtual machine reboots, you should finally be able to use Windows. Now that we have Windows installed on our virtual machine, we can start having fun.
The VMware Fusion window will disappear, and all of the open applications in Windows will now appear to be Mac applications. If your virtual machine is turned on and running Windows , turn it off. You can do this by selecting Shutdown from the Start menu in Windows. There are plenty of options here to configure! Of course, most of the settings are beyond the scope of this tutorial.
Select Display from the left-hand sidebar. This will help you to play games and see those fancy Windows effects in Vista. Up the memory as much as you like. See this article for more information. Fusion does not change these terms or enable macOS on non-Apple hardware. To install the operating system, use the procedure for creating a virtual machine for any supported operating system. What is Virtualization, and how does it work?
Here are the main points you need to understand VMware: VMware Fusion is a normal application that you install on your Mac. It resides in your Applications folder and it sits on your Dock, just like Safari and iTunes. If you read the discussion you'll agree with me that the "product manager" considers Unity Mode superfluous: I expect that as long as the product manager considers Unity Mode superfluous, no one will care about fixing it note that prior to VMware fusion I would like to say 2 things: first, the fact that the product manager considers a feature useless doesn't mean that it is useless for all users.
Second, unity mode isn't just "not perfectly smooth", it is almost unusable because dragging and resizing the windows is really difficult if someone needs more details about this, I'm available to provide screen captures and everything is needed. So, if I say "I'm going to switch to Parallels because no one cares" is because I find that Parallels puts the needed care in developing features that users want, even though these features may seem not very useful to who manages the development of the product.
As I noted in the other thread, this Unity problem is a usability issue, not a minor glitch. I gave up on the feature because it was pretty clear the folks at VMware inc who cared and saw this as a problem to be fixed got outvoted by the folks who decided they had better things to do, and those things were a higher priority to them than basic, broken UX.
Of the big three, that leaves VMware as the winner. Mikero Could you please reconsider the decision of leaving Unity Mode nearly unusable? Yup, they don't have unlimited development resources, so low-use features may lag getting touched webcam in some linux VM's is another example.
Last year was all about migrating to the apple hypervisor framework. Right now I expect they're all hands on deck just trying to get Fusion working on M1's. Those are big rocks that take a lot of work and impact all customers. Unity is a nice-to-have, not a must-have feature for a hypervisor, so it's down the priority list. I find this answer to be [removed by moderator]; what you said is well known to all of us. If they don't want to fix unity, then fix multi monitor support.
That's why I and I think most people use unity. Multi monitor setups are becoming the norm, and currently there is no way to spread the guest OS across multiply physical monitors. I have tried everything to get Windows 10 to work across 2 monitors in full screen mode, and I have concluded it's impossible.
Unity works great, except the totally unusable UI when moving a window. VMware should consider fixing this, as the vast majority of their customer base has multiple physical monitors.
