Installing VMware Fusion For Mac OS

VMware Fusion is a software hypervisor developed by VMware for macOS systems. It allows Macs with Intel or the Apple M series of chips to run virtual machines with guest operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows, Linux, or macOS, within the host macOS operating system.

  1. Download VMware Fusion from Broadcom (recommend the newest version you could find), you may need to register a new account first.
  2. Download official Windows 11 Disk Image (ISO) for Arm-based PCs from Microsoft.
  3. Install VMware Fusion and drag Windows 11 ARM64 ISO to install Windows system on new created Virtual Machine.
  4. When stepping up Windows 11, need to press Shift-F10 to launch a command prompt and enter OOBE\BYPASSNRO.
  5. Install VMware Tools from the menu bar under Virtual Machine.

Now you can install any software (e.g., Materials Stuido) you wish to run on Windows. To transfer files from your host system to the guest system, the easiest method is to use OneDrive.
