First, there are ARM builds of Windows, or x86 builds of their hypervisor, so those pictures could come from that. So while some of the alternatives might talk about Intel code on M1, they are talking about CPU simulation, which is fine for debugging, otherwise it's a toy.Īnd a strong beware of the sales blurb showing pretty pictures of a Windows 10 or 11 desktop. VirtualBox is not a CPU SIMULATOR, as that is a different animal entirely with much worse performance and most likely errors in detail that prevents a complex OS from running. This means that while the hardware is virtual, code runs directly on the host CPU at full speed, the host CPU therefore must be x86. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try QEMU or KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine). The best alternative is VMware Workstation Pro. VirtualBox is a hypervisor, as all of the practical alternatives are too. There are more than 50 alternatives to VirtualBox for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, BSD, Mac and AMD MxGPU. I will add that, as far as is known, the VirtualBox alternatives will not please you either, assuming your goal is to run x86 Windows or Linux code on a Mac in the manner you may be used to. Oracle VM VirtualBox (formerly Sun VirtualBox, Sun xVM VirtualBox and Innotek VirtualBox) is a type-2 hypervisor for x86 virtualization developed by Oracle. See the sticky at the top of the this forum.
