Object: Install VirtualBox\ V Mware


Workstation on different OS.

Resource : Oracle VirtualBox


Introduction:
This How to will show the installation of the
Virtual Box program that can be set up in
Windows 10 or 11 to run a second Operating
System in a single computer. Additionally, Linux
Ubuntu, will be installed to demonstrate the use
of the Virtual Box.

What is VirtualBox?
Virtual Box is an Open Source software, is freely
available, and performs as a Virtual Machine. It
can be installed in the most popular operating
systems such as Windows 10 or 11 and Vista,
Macintosh and Linux hosts, while additionally
supporting a large number of guest operating
systems such as Red Hut, Fedora, Ubuntu,
OpenSolaris, Open SUSE, Devian. You can even
install Windows Vista or Windows 10 or 11 Guest
in a Linux Host without a dual boot environment
…just one key will switch from Host OS to Guest
OS. This is a big advantage since you can have
two operating systems in the same screen at the
same time without restarting your machine!

How to install the VirtualBox?


We will go step by step in the process of installing
VirtualBox in a computer that runs Windows 10 0r
11. Before proceeding with any installation I
suggest to create a new partition exclusively for
VirtualBox. I have created a new partition with the
letter E: \ and have assigned 16 GB. I’m sure that
you don’t need to create a special partition for
this installation but I feel more relieved doing it…
…and remember VirtualBox is free!
1- To download the VirtualBox application, go to
www.virtualbox.org
2- Select on the right side menu, Downloads
3- From the list select VirtualBox 7.1.6 for
Windows hosts (for 7 ,8,10,11) for other host
operating systems select accordingly. Choose the
destination where you will save it.

Downloading and Installing VirtualBox:


To download VirtualBox, go to the official
site virtualbox.org and download the latest version for
windows.
4 - A window will indicate the download progress.
The download will take approximately 3 minutes.
5 - Once the download is completed, go to the
location where you have saved the file and double
click on it. A welcome window will open. Hit next
and accept the conditions. Click next.
When you get to the Custom Set Up window you
can chose in which location you would like to save
the program. By default it goes to your Program
Files in your C:\ drive but you have the option of
choosing another folder or partition where the
program will be stored

# Select Installation Location:


6 - Once you selected the place where you’re
going to save the VirtualBox program, hit next.
7 - Next window will ask you to install the
VirtualBox. Go ahead and hit Install
8 - VirtualBox will be installed in your computer.
This process will take a few minutes.
9 - Once the installation is completed hit Finish
and open the VirtualBox in your computer.
10- Our VirtualBox is already installed.
