I saw a video in which a former MS employee got one of those scam calls from India saying his Windows PC was infected. He recorded the call and let them get on his computer, but he had set up a virtual machine, so they couldn’t do any damage. The scammer even got his supervisor on the call, and both of them got pretty frustrated that they couldn’t open the things they were trying to open. It was pretty humorous.
wow very great tutorial! sadly, much better than my teacher who just expects us to know everything without teaching 💀. There goes my tuition.
Great video, well categorized, kept short enough to not get confusing but long enough to hold all the information you need to get started and potential issues categorized. One just has to watch the steps and execute them as you go. Thank you!
Considering how complex the idea of Virtualization is, I’ve always been so impressed by how intuitive and easy to use Virtualbox actually is. I’ve been using it for years and although I’ve heard of VMware and other software I’ve really had no practical reason to look elsewhere. Virtualbox has always just clicked in my mind the first time I used it. It shows you that software that does something complex doesn’t actually need to be complex to learn and operate. In my mind it’s a case of great software design!
Thanks for the tutorial! Really helpful and it was clear what to do. For anyone who reads this: If you start the VM and there is an error saying that a critical error has occured, try restarting your PC. This happened to me and restarting the PC worked.
, you're a mind reader! It's just yesterday that I was looking for a tutorial video by you, on how to install a VM on my PC, but couldn't find any! And then today, I got the notification of this new video by you! Thanks a lot for a well explained walk-through!
Be honest, we're all here just to run those funny viruses without causing damage to our real PCs, aren't we?
By far the most easiest and user friendly way and step by step on how to do this. Thank you so much and keep up the great work!!!!!
Easy to follow and straight to the point! Thank you Kevin.
Probably the best video on Virtual Box I seen for newbies
Thank god I clicked on a virtual box video and it wasn’t just an AI voice leading me to malware
Easy to follow and just what I needed. Got VBox installed and the installed Kali Linux. Thank you!
My favourite software virtualisation tool! VirtualBox is great for running Linux, any version of Windows, BSD, Haiku OS, React OS, etc. You can run so many older OS's with this too! I love this program because it works on Linux, meaning I can use Windows specific software in a VM on Linux without having to reboot into Windows, or install Windows. As of right now, I use VirtualBox version 6.1, which I find easier than the newer 7.0, although I guess I'll have to update eventually. I don't believe version 7 is available yet for most Linux distro's. Keep up the fantastic work with your videos, we really appreciate it. :)
Interacting with this to hopefully bump it up in the search results! This is a very clean and easy to understand tutorial, so thank you for making the video! Here’s hoping I can use your advice to get my own virtual machine running.
This was really helpful. Provided just the minimum amount of information for me to execute my project.
Thanks! I have managed to get Ubuntu running on a Windows computer, but got stuck in my attempt to install an Android virtual machine. Maybe you could go through that process in another video?
Thank you Kevin. It’s too complicated for me, but I love to watch your video. Keep flowing for some beginner aw well. 😊
THANK YOU!!! I have delayed my process on the odin project this summer/fall because I couldnt figure out how to run this VM effectively! This helped so much!!
1:47 For those who can't find the virtualization (VDM) in the Windows 10 BIOS, check Windows Features from the desktop interface. Type "Turn Windows Features" and it should be available in the primary load out. It may take a few minutes to load up and apply the changes, depending on the age of your machine.
Best tutorials on youtube, thanks Kevin!
