Vmware Fusion 4 Download For Mac: Run Windows and Linux on Your Mac



I recently purchased VMware fusion 12 pro and when I got the download link it was for intel based Macs. I have the new MacBook Pro M1, so do I need to return the software and purchase something else or will it run on my M1? Thanks




Vmware Fusion 4 Download For Mac



I am a web developer but I am very new to running virtual machines, so you might need to explain things to me slowly, with all the jargon defined. I downloaded the preview version for free to run on my new MacBook Pro, which uses an M1 chip. Are you saying that the preview version should work if and only if I use VMWare tools? If so, where can I get the explain-it-like-I'm-5 version of how to install VMWare tools, including which version to use (Mac, Windows?) and how I make the disk image available to VMWare Fusion in the right way?


I worked many many years with Fusion on Intel Mac and ran into the same issue since last year, when I bought the new 16" M1 macbook pro. So I started to test Fusion for M1 and could install&run Linux for ARM. Runs very fast! There exists, of course, a Windows ARM version downloadable. You need to register (for free) for the "Insider Preview Program" to be able to download it. Nowadays it is Windows 11 only. But I wasn't able to get it run on Fusion for M1 - the installation always ended in a blue screen & reboot.


You can download the Tech Preview here ( -download?downloadGroup=FUS-PUBTP-2021H1), I haven't had much luck with it using windows or the other servers I've tried to virtualize but maybe you will. If you just need windows I highly recommend Parallels.


VMWare Fusion lets you run windows 11, I set mine up yesterday. This worked for me -fusion-on-apple-silicion-m1/. I don't know about the licence situation for everyone, it shows a watermark on the background about being a preview. You will need a windows PC to download the OS too because you need to convert the file type and the software for that is specific to windows.

Parallels offers the added benefit of an iPhone and iPad app that lets you access Mac-based virtual machines on your mobile device. This app was free when I downloaded it, but now costs $4.99 and will eventually get bumped up to the full price of $19.99. VMware offers a View client for the iPad, but it only works in conjunction with a VMware View hosted desktop deployment, and not with Fusion. By contrast, even with the year-old Parallels Desktop 6 I can use my iPad to access the instance of Windows running on my Mac.


Windows 10 N and KN editions are provided without media technologies. You can download and install these multimedia components from the Microsoft website manually (a special Media Feature Pack is provided) after installing Windows 10 on your computer or virtual machine.


VMware this week announced that its latest VMware Fusion update brings Windows 11 support to both Intel and Apple silicon Macs. Available as a free tech preview, the 2H22 version of Fusion will finally allow Apple silicon Mac users to download and use Windows on their machines through virtualization.


VMware says that it is looking for feedback from users in order to iron out kinks and add new capabilities in preparation for more formal support later this year. While in the testing period, VMware Fusion will be free to use. The VMware Fusion Tech Preview can be downloaded from the VMware website.

Then find your virtual machine, probably under yourname/Documents/Virtual Machines/. It may or may not has the .vmwarevm extension depending on your Mac setting.Ctrl-click and select Show Package Contents.


To install Ubuntu from the .iso file you downloaded, select Choose a disc or disc image… from the menu with the same name. The selection window appears. Select the .iso file you downloaded from the Ubuntu website, and then click Open. The .iso file appears in the menu as shown below.


Nice. To run Windows 11, it does provide the expected virtual TPM 2.0 support, UEFI, Secure Boot, etc. to meet the Windows hardware requirements. And of course it can download and install various flavors of Linux as well.


Well the good news is that Parallels Desktop 18 has solved these problems that made running the ARM version of Windows so challenging due to it not normally being licensed to individual users. Parallels now includes the ability to download and buy the ARM version of Windows 11 directly within Parallels itself.


Windows 11 was is now released for the general public and I went and downloaded an evaluation on Windows 11 to see what all the fuss was about. I am a Mac user, so I have for years used VMware Fusion to run VMs on my Mac. I soon learned that if you want to run Windows 11 using VMware Fusion, you need to go through a few extra steps to make work.
