Currently, runs on the following host OSes:

• Windows hosts (64-bit):

  • Windows 10

  • Windows 11

  • Windows Server 2019

  • Windows Server 2022

  • Windows Server 2025

• macOS hosts (64-bit):

  • 11 (Big Sur)

  • 12 (Monterey)

  • 13 (Ventura)

  • 14 (Sonoma)

  Intel hardware is required. See also Known Limitations.

  An installer package is available for macOS/Arm64, for systems using an Apple silicon CPU. With this package, you can run some guest operating systems for Intel x86/x64 CPUs in an emulation.

  The macOS/Arm64 installer package for Apple silicon platform is available as a Developer Preview release. This package represents a work in progress project and the performance is very modest.

  Developer Preview is a public release for developers, which provides early access to unsupported software release and features.

• Linux hosts (64-bit). Includes the following:

  • Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, 22.04 and 24.04

  • Debian GNU/Linux 11 (Bullseye) and 12 (Bookworm)

  • Oracle Linux 7, 8 and 9

  • CentOS/Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 and 9

  • Fedora 39 and 40

  • SUSE Linux Enterprise server 15

  • openSUSE Leap 15.3, 15.4 and 15.5

  It should be possible to use on most systems based on Linux kernel 2.6 or later, using either the installer or by doing a manual installation. See . However, the formally tested and supported Linux distributions are those for which we offer a dedicated package.

  Note that Linux 2.4-based host OSes are no longer supported.

• Oracle Solaris hosts (64-bit only). The following versions are supported with the restrictions listed in Known Limitations:

  • Oracle Solaris 11.4

Note that any feature which is marked as experimental is not supported. Feedback and suggestions about such features are welcome.
