Initially, the only option for running virtual machines on M1 Macs was Parallels Desktop, so that’s where I started. (You might think the first VM was a Windows VM, but that’s not the case, the first was a Fedora 34 Linux installation. Not surprisingly, the first thing I wanted to do on it was to run virtual machines. I have a Mac Mini with the original ARM-based M1 chip. Oh, and you can generate your own Windows 11 ARM64 ISOs now too, just like Parallels does. Also see this post that clarifies Microsoft’s licensing for Windows for ARM64. It is especially worth mentioning that VMware Fusion/Pro supports 3D graphics acceleration with superior performance, that means you can even use it to play popular 3D games specially designed for some kind of OS! In a work, VMware Fusion/Pro is undoubtedly the best assistant for Mac OS X users who are looking for a virtual machine.īelow are permanent activation license keys for both VMware Fusion and VMware Fusion Pro, most of which were tested for VMware Fusion 6 Pro v6.0.1, v6.0.2, v6.0.3 and v6.0.4, VMware Fusion 7 Pro v7.0.0, v7.1.0, v7.1.1, v8.0.0, v8.5.1, v10.0.1, v10.1.1, v11.0.0, v12.0.0, and v13.0.0.: Feel free to read through this post and then check out the new follow-up post that compares the latest versions of Parallels and VMware Fusion. In addition to the full screen mode, VMware Fusion/Pro is capable of “turning” directly any application (such as Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office on Windows) on other OS into their “Mac Editions” to run, just like you are running them perfectly on their original OS.

It provides the ultimate Windows experience on a Mac OS, enables you to directly run Windows, Linux, Android or other OS at the same time without having to restart your Mac OS. As a very excellent virtual machine software with very high performance under Mac OS, VMware Fusion (Pro) is the best way to seamlessly run Windows on a Mac computer.
