Keep in mind the performance of the operating system will be much worse than if it were running on a physical machine, and it will struggle on graphically intensive tasks. Don't judge an operating system based on that in a virtual machine. Focus instead on getting a system that you're comfortable navigating and getting basic tasks done on. Install a few programs. Try to learn how it works. Stuff like that.
VM's are usually garbage.
As a follow up: it's possible to make a VM that is a copy of your existing, working Windows 10 setup. And then make a Backup copy.
When Win10 support ends, you can keep running the VM version.
With no network connection, so nasties can't get in, and that backup Just In Case.
Before you start Ubuntu in VirtualBox, you should go into setting, disk, (and if you have an SSD in the PC), check the box.
My sister has a laptop with Win 11. Every week or so I'm asked to get something working because it stopped; one day it's the printer isn't recognized, another day it's unable to connect to our router. I'm already sick & tired of Win 11 and I don't even have it yet! I'm sticking with Win 10 as long as possible, I'm not in love with it but at least I've got everything working. I've tried a number of Linux installs but there's always something that throws me back into Windows- which at least does what I want it to do, without having to learn all the command line instructions that Linux seems to require. Sigh. Last OS I really liked was back in the '80s: Amiga OS was awesome, but it's long dead now. Oh well!
I boot Linux on a different hard drive on my computer, I just reboot tap F11 and it boots into Linux Mint 21.3 I like Mint, I run the programs I can't run on Windows and poke around with the programs I like on Linux, you really shouldn't dual boot, because Windows boot files corrupt easily and I didn't want that to happen so I installed on an HD separate from my Windows installation, it's been about two months now and I like it.
Uma boa ideia. Acho melhor do que usar VM.
You're awesome Liron. Your knowledge and expertise is invaluable to us older viewers. Cheers from Australia.
I use VMs regularly but it's usually to run Linux in Linux. No Windows here.
this is the way
KVM is great for distrohopping and previewing the distro's capabilities.
Please a video on getting around Windows Minimum Requirements for Windows 11, Thank you very much!
Don't worry about it create a bootable windows 11 usb using rufus and it will show options to bypass all requirements and you can install on any pc
It would still be nice to see a video doing so.
I remember when I first tried Ubuntu, gave the option two boot operators. When you turned on PC asked do you want to log in windows or Ubuntu.
I find virtual machines like virtual box handy for running old legacy software on older operating systems, say Windows XP.
For testing a version of Linux, I just create a bootable USB drive and test with that. You can build as many as you like to test multiple Linux distros.
For actually running Linux live, I prefer to use older, obsolete Laptops. Linux brings them back to life.
Keep in ind, that llinux running from a sllow mediumlike USB Stick may be much slower than running it from harrddisk or SSD ...
VMware Workstation Pro is now free for personal use and VMware Workstation Player will no longer be available (at least as a standalone product, or maybe it will continue to be included in the Pro full package, like it does now).
The simplest thing to do is to get another drive. Having an older case with hot swappable bays means you can swtch OS like game cartridges.
I just keep the Windows SSD and install Linux in another SSD. I can switch by restarting and picking the one I want.
You should make a video on Dual Booting, a Virtual Machine, even while using Xubuntu can lag a ton if you're doing anything important, speaking from experience.
YES!!! Please make a video on how to install Windows 11 on a non qualifying old Windows 10.
Definitely! Please.

Is LTT Linus Tech Tips?
VirtualBox emulates the necessary hardware on non-qualifying machines. I have a Win11 Pro VM running in VirtualBox on an 11 year old machine with a 3rd gen i5 processor. It does have 16Gb of RAM and an SSD for the virtual disk storage but it in no way qualifies. I did nothing special to get Win11 running apart from using a local account by telling the installer I was connecting to a domain.
You can play with Win11 all you like depending on your level of masochism. I set Win11 up to annoy tech support scammers who call me. Otherwise, I use Debian 12.6.
Yes can you do a video on how to get around doesn't meet mim requirements . Thanks
you just press Shift+F10 to bring up the command prompt at the initial install screen. LTT has a video on this.
You don't have to do anything if you install Win11 in a VirtualBox VM. VB emulates all the hardware needed. That's how I'm running a Win11 VM on a 3rd gen i5 without a TPM. It never complained once during the install.
Request for video to skip hardware requirements please.
You don't need to do anything to install Win11 in a VirtualBox VM as the required hardware is emulated by VBox. That's how I got Win11 to run in VBox on a 3rd gen i5 without TPM.
Watching this on my Linux Mint SSD mini PC....relaxed.... sipping latte...with some sugar coated twist
the w$11 ssd for this unit stored....somewhere...(tries to look around where it should be)
I love Gnome Boxes, I use it to run Windows and Linux. It is great to run Tiny11 and all the other Windows mods.
"Now, there are some differences between them. But for the purposes of what we're trying to do, they're virtually the same...."
I see what you did there...Virtual Machines being virtually the same.
Glad someone got it 😜
I left Windows during COVID. I'm exclusively Linux. Never looked back.
Yeeeees to how to get around Windows 11 minimum hardware requirements. This is what EVERYONE will be asking as we approach Win 10 EOL (10/25)

Nice one Liron. Thanks
Dear Liron, I have a Win 10 which falls under the unsupported category for Win 11 installation. For upgrading to Windows 11, there's Win 11 Lite, then, Windows 11 LTSC. Which one is the least fallible for something to go wrong(including: security updates for Win 11)? My knowledge is intermediate in windows, but this is so baffling. Thank you so very, very much!! Cheers
For people new to VM's I would highly recommend that you don't share files and folders between your actual machine and the VM. You could accidentally infect your machine. Its not likely but I have seen it happen. You may want to keep your machine and the VM as isolated from each other as possible.
Some of us need to edit video files from both sides
My PC health Check for win 11 did not pass. What is the workaround, please?
I'm using dual boot mode for decades. That way I can enjoy the best of two worlds. I love it. 🙂❤💯👍
The VMWare [Windows version] download fails from the link you gave, unable to reach server. Checking Reddit it seems that the download has been broken for months. Is there an alternative download site that you would recommend please?
Hmmm...you are right. Was working when I posted it. Try the other software in the meantime. I emailed them to let them know.
@@LironSegev Thank you very much.
@@LironSegev VMWare Player has been discontinued. VMWare WorkStation Pro and Fusion Pro are now being offered with a personal license pending registration with Broadcom (the new company that now owns VMWare).
The video I'm looking for! Very helpful! I will be experimenting with Linux distros in the future and make the switch once Windows 10's support ends (probably purchase the cheapest Windows 365 subscription to have ESUs for free for another 3 years. Might cancel them to still receive ESUs. Copilot answered these questions for me😅
I made my plan to keep using Windows 10. Might make the switch to the IoT LTSC Enterprise 21H2 version to use until January 2032 to test and develop applications. Something worth trying. But it would be complicated to activate it (worth a try) and I'd use a user friendly Linux distro, which is open-source once that support runs out as well. I'd keep using my computer for very long time. Best to keep and use rather than throwing it away.
Programs are going to work on Win 10 for 3-6 years. It should receive the same treatment as Windows 7). You should note that VM Ware Workstation Pro is free for all users.
Sorry if I went off topic a little, but I also referred to your Windows 10 EOS video. A few corrections: Windows 10 may likely get driver updates after its EOL date, if the OEM wants to. But there is a catch: they only provide drivers if your device is in the list of specified devices for receiving driver updates. But I don't fully guarantee this, which is why I should be prepared for the foreseeable future and keep myself up-to-date with relevant documentation. As for program support, I already mentioned it to you that programs will work for another 3-6 years (depending on lifecycle support) and there's no need to panic about end of support.
But I still appreciate the videos you make Liron and keep up with the great content you produce and I'm glad you're listening to people's issues and always provide a solution to their problems.
i have tried to install android on vitrual machine but it never worked, any clue ?
There's a big problem. Win 10 and 11 do not recognize the NVME ssd and an external driver is need, and after I managed to get this driver, the laptop gave me the blue screen of death.
So I installed Windows 10 on external hard drive via USB to use as an OS that is loaded when the USB connected, and there's no sound.
For some reason, the new laptops that comes with Windows 11, their motherboard drivers do not work on Windows 10.
So I installed Zorin OS 17.1 (Ubuntu based) and everything works like magic. Easy installation, many software are pre installed, a HUGE list of software that can be installed for free, it is ready to take Windows third party software, no messing with the terminal and no AI Copilot and Recall.
All Windows users. Check Zorin OS. You'll be surprise how much it feels like Windows.

Very cool thanks!!! 👍 I may have misunderstood something you mentioned at the beginning. I currently have Win10 on my MS Surface Pro5 which does not meet Win11 requirements. But using this VM method, I still can't use Win11 in a VM environment even by tweaking those hardware configurations? That's how I understood you. Please correct me if I misunderstood.
Love all your videos BTW!!
Both VMWare and VirtualBox emulate the TPM so you don't need a real one. I have Win11 running in a VirtualBox VM on a 3rd gen i5 without a TPM and Win11 never once complained.

If a user installs a licensed with a key copy of Windows into a VM will Microsoft "lock" that key as being valid only with that VM or could it be later used to install on physical hardware later?
It is possible to reuse physical hardware, however, in the worst scenario, you will need to contact their support. In better cases, you just need to log in with your Microsoft account to the VM log in to that account to the new physical machine, and then perform the license reactivation process using the standard Windows setting menu.
I still have Windows-11 - it is on an SSD that is in a box, on a shelf down in the spare room. The case it came out of has a new SSD loaded with Mint - and I have never a regret.
MS is cutting support for win10, making win10 a virus incubator. And you can’t simply upgrade to win11, and hardware is ok for running anything, what do you do?
Very cool Liron
While I was thinking that I'd like to try out Linux without removing Windows 10, Liron was on the same time producing a video about exactly this matter. Mind reading Liron? I'm scared.
Nice video thanks!
Yes, VM's rock. I'm watching this on a Linux Mint VM hosted on Win10. (Much prefer Linux!) The fun thing is that you can find old operating system ISO's when you just want to have fun playing around. I have VM's also for Win3.1, OS/2 Warp 4, and a couple other Linux distros. Don't use the old stuff much but fun to play with every once in a while and see just how far we have gotten.
Its easy enough to install any OS with most VMs, however it's the interaction between real machines and VMs thats the headache (i.e moving files between your machine to the VM). There's always extra steps in getting these up and running correctly.
It's actually really simple if you set up a network share and move your files that way.
@@dingokidneys Thanks. I'll look into it
Just put linux on an external ssd if you wanna try it out especially if you plan to game.
How can I use this information to dump Windows entirely? All my music and movie files are on external USB hard drives. I know I can export all my Bitwarden and Proton Pass password files. I have a 1 TB external USB drive that I have been trying to install Linux Mint to, with no success. I have a ASRock main board that doesn't support TPM.
If you're really ready to switch, buy a new SSD to replace your existing boot drive then back up the data that you want to pull over from the old boot drive to your external drive.
Swap the new boot drive in and install your Linux. Keep the old one safe somewhere as backup. Depending on what it is you may be able to attach it via a SATA to USB3 adapter or an external NVME enclosure in the event that you need something else from it.
If things go bad, you can always swap your old boot drive back in and you have a spare drive for additional internal/external storage.
As for your existing Linux Mint on USB, have you tried using the BIOS boot menu to launch it? It won't boot automatically unless you've unplugged the internal boot drive.
I usually set up separate computers with only Linux & leave 1 computer on Windows 10 & another on Windows 7 SP 1. I want to set up VirtualBox on the Windows 10 box & install Kali & Ubuntu .ISOs. I have used other hypervisors before, but never VirtualBox. Questions:
1. Can I move documents from the Windows underlying file system between Windows & one of the Linux documents directories? I already have 30 TB on the Windows machine. How do I do it? I think there is a setting in VB, but I don't know it.
2. I want to be able to mount an external USB SSD drive and a thumbdrive directly dedicated to my Kali Linux & the same to my Ubuntu. Can Kali & Ubuntu share the drives since they are both Debian children or do I need separate drives? What format should I format the external drives to & how do I mount it through VirtualBox?
3. If I already have a spare external non-SSD drive, how do I mount it to Linux on VB to use it for all of my storage - instead of allocating it on the C:/ drive.
I need to be able to move content back and forth among the different operating system if at all possible.
BTW, I'm watching this on a Raspberry Pi 5 running Kali booting directly from a 2 TB SSB with dual 43" 4k UHDTV monitors. Faster than my Windows 10 box...

is there a way to VirtualBox recognize my dedicaded gpu? or other VM who does it?
you can't allocate a dedicated GPU to a VM except through QEMU/KVM in Linux with a LINUX OS and an AMD GPU. it won't work in Windows, and VirtualBox/VMWare won't do it either. the best you can get, performance-wise, is to install the guest tools for those 2.
you CAN pass through a GPU in QEMU but you can't use both OSs at the same time.

Great video, altought its even easier to try a distro witg a liveusb
You don't really get a feel for it with a live boot. Yes you get to click around but you aren't going to install your apps and set up email etc. when you have a full install you get a much better feel for the os over a period of time.
Running a live distro does verify that certain hardware works that cannot be verified by a virtual machine. Granted, it's possible to pass thru some hardware, but a live USB is often better for testing things like WIFI cards, certain types of mice, keyboards, and of course things like a touch screen. It's also a great way to see if you can run a different version of the kernel as well. To make even live USB better, set up a ventoy disk and then you can pick and choose which live usb to try..
Some distros also will allow you to run the distro INSTALLED onto a USB flash or USB attached SSD . it's often best to completely remove the onboard SSD or disable it completely in the BIOS ( The drives internal to DELL"s can often be disabled completely within the BIOS ). Disable the drive or remove it, install completely to USB, and then re-enable the internal drive, and use whichever hotkey to select the boot drive ..

We know everything 😜
Do you need to purchase a Windows license to create a Windows VM? Example: Installing a Windows 11 VM on a Linux computer- do I need to own a separate Windows 11 license? What if I want to create multiple Windows 11 VMs?
Each copy of Windows needs a license - at least if you don't wanna cross the red line. True for VMs as well.
Yes.
There are options to getting a license for each. Option 1: rebuild your image of Windows 11 every now and then, like every 90 days. Option 2: get a license for each. Option 3: Re-ARM your build usually from an administrative command prompt using something like cscript slmgr.vbs -rearm ; Re-arming the timer will only work for so long; Do yourself a favor after you build your machine; take a snapshot, let the timer run out, re-arm till it no longer works, then revert back to your snapshot, re-arm, and you're once again working.
Option 4: Never used this: it might work, it might not; there's a rebuild function within WIndows where you re-install windows - it should also bring it to a freshly armed state as well.
A Windows license- if you need it, well, look around and apparently some sites will advertise licenses for as little as $20 or so.
Thanks to all for the helpful feedback and suggestions

Does the operating system have to be installed on the C drive,Can it be on an external drive?
A USB drive is an external drive and there are loads of videos showing how to set up Linux (or Windows) on a USB stick. You may have to select the drive to boot from the BIOS boot menu though as sometimes it won't be picked up automatically. You could replace the USB stick with an SSD via USB3 for more space and so if you really liked it, you could just swap it into the chassis as your primary boot drive.

@@tonyv3000 I copied the name of the ex ec file, and did a google search on it, found a different older link inside their server, and downloaded from that... an older version.

I said yes... and it wouldn't connect to the cloudfare upgrade link... so... just find an older version and make sure it's hosted on the actually vmware site, not some third party software site where it could be infected.
Works great, and unlike Hyper-V, sound!
Recording audio in Audacity doesn't seem to work for me though...
why didn't you even mention hyper-v (the winders built in virtualization platform)? granted, I've taught virtualization (vmware & hyper-v) since 2010, although I've never been biased about the platforms..... it is still right there in the system....
Instead of running linux in a VM (whhich isone possibillliity), ou can also turn your computer in a "dual boot" machine and choose between both OS at boot time ...
Ihad linux long before newer windows versions. My first linux was based on kenell 0...98PL4 (it was an early SLS distribution) and ran a dual boot sstem with DOS with Windows3 and llinux. on a hharddisk with about 100 b capacity. This disk capacity is nowadays not adaequate for either operating system ....
The easiiest way to run linux in a VM on Windows is to just install a linux distribution from Microsoft app store. That is running in HyperV (the Microsoft VM) and shoulld be much easier to setup. There ae different ditributions avaiablle.
Probably a fine video for the average user, but me being new to the channel, I though the target audience for this video was the more tech savvie.
I hoped for some obscure way of running windows on my Linux pc, that I didn't know of.
Did you say 16gig of ram was a must for Linux?
No! The amount of ram needed depends on the Distro you pick. Some lightweight Linux Distros like Antix run perfectly with 1 GB of ram. If You are truly interested in trying Linux, there are loads of videos on beginner friendly Distros here on Yourtube. Try some and see what feels right for You.
No: Actually it will run on quite a bit less memory and ram. Generally if it could run a recent version of windows, it can generally run a version of linux. Almost every distro of linux usually has some published specs as to how much disk space, ram and cpu is needed.
The 16GB thing was for if you want to run several VMs at the same time so you have lots of room and some to spare for other things you're doing. I have a 4GB laptop that I can run a VirtualBox VM on quite comfortably.
Wait a minute. Your introduction is a little off. 😉 (Insert helpful tip here?)

Windows 10 is not a solution. It still has virtually all the bad things found in Windows 11. Anything that is not in Windows 10 will soon be retroactively added. Remember when MS added Telemetry into Windows 7? Telemetry is absolutely terrible for privacy and security but people foolishly accept it in Windows 10.

I have studio running on the PC so it snot done for me .. Next time i buy an Apple for music studio .. Problem solved!
So Linux has no Kernel driver for the most used disk sytem ? Thats realy bad imo ..
Does Linux ubuntu need web or antivirus security
Which one?
No it doesn't. Viruses are made for the windows only. I have used linux probably 10 years and never had problems with viruses.
@@jani3253 TY!
windows is ultimate operating system i love it actually❤❣❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great video. I've been thinking about trying linux.
Q's:
To play around with the 2nd system once installed do you first launch the VM then have a system to select?
Are you in VM software when you download an operating system to install? If not, how do you get the download to the VM software.
I assume you cannot move files from your primary operating system to the 2nd system. True? This is why I asked the previous Q.
Did I notice you moved between the primary operating system and the 2nd system?
Thanks.
I prefer zVM from IBM. Been using it since 1980
You should show how to install MacOS also 😉
I thought you were already going to make a dual boOt
Instead just dual boot. Better than VM for better performance.
I did rounded windows 11
Linux is awesome but it's so complicated especially with few software and installing its dependencies.
The best Linux for Windows users to migrate to is Zorin os.
