You can install Mac OS X, OS X, or macOS in a virtual machine. Fusion creates the virtual machine, opens the operating system installation assistant, and installs VMware Tools. VMware Tools loads the drivers required to optimize a virtual machine's performance.
Mac OS X, OS X, or macOS virtual machines that you create in Fusion can run on any Apple-branded hardware that uses Intel processors. The Apple licensing agreement defines the situations when it is permissible to virtualize Mac OS X, OS X, or macOS. Fusion does not change these terms or enable macOS on non-Apple hardware. You cannot use a Mac OS X, OS X, or macOS virtual machine in another VMware product, such as Workstation Pro.

The Apple licensing agreement defines the situations when it is permissible to virtualize Mac OS X, OS X, or macOS. You have a Mac Computer but you need to use some applications that are Windows-specific. You could buy a Windows PC but that is the expensive option. Why not use Virtualization instead. With a good virtual machine software, you can create a virtual environment on your Mac that allows you to run the Windows OS and all the associated programs. Before we install OS X, we'll need to set up VirtualBox so the OS X install disc can boot correctly. Here's what you need to do: Step 1: Launch VirtualBox and click the New button. Give your new virtual machine a name (I just called it 'Mac OS X') and set the operating system to 'Mac OS X Server (64-bit)'. Windows hosts: Double-click the VMware Workstation icon on your desktop or use the Start menu. Press OK, then attempt to power up the virtual machine again. Once the Apple logo passes, power down the virtual machine, then set the Guest operating system option back to Apple Mac OS X, selecting the correct version.
