VirtualBox is a general-purpose virtualization platform that allows you to run multiple guest operating systems within one host system. Its cross-platform nature, modularity and open model make it one of the most popular tools in the world of development, testing, and lab virtualization, as well as for everyday use. With the help of this tool you can work on a Mac from Windows or vice versa, among a myriad of other operating systems, without any complex configurations or having to be an expert in the field.
Cross-platform compatibility and hardware support
VirtualBox can be installed on host systems such as Windows, Linux, macOS and Solaris, allowing various guest systems to be run on them. What's more, one of the main advantages is that you can create a virtual machine with dozens of options available as standard, but if you can't find what you are looking for or want to install a more specific version, you can use your own ISO to open a custom machine. Simply click the button to create a new one and choose the image you want to use as a base. Follow all the steps to complete the process and use your new virtual machine however and whenever you want.
Modular architecture and extensible design
VirtualBox is designed with a modular approach in mind. Its core provides the essential functions, while an additional pack of extensions provides advanced features like USB 2.0/3.0 support, remote desktop protocol, disk encryption, device passthrough, etc. Thanks to this, you can choose which modules you want to add as required, while keeping the core open.
Virtual storage and disk controllers
VirtualBox can emulate various disk controllers such as IDE, SATA, SCSI, NVMe, as well as support disk images in VDI, VMDK, VHD and other formats. It also allows you to connect virtual machines directly to iSCSI servers, potentially improving performance by bypassing the host. In addition, raw disk access allows a VM to interact directly with physical host disks in advanced settings.
Download VirtualBox for free and enjoy a comfortable, lightweight and powerful virtualization platform that allows you to work on almost any operating system through Windows.

Is a worst I see an error (failed to open a session for the virtual box)
Works great. One downside (for me personally) - you can't choose more than 256 megabytes of video memory (from the quick menu).
I use Windows 10. I have a small problem: I have set up VirtualBox perfectly and virtualized Windows 10, which I will use to test some programs. Everything works perfectly, including the recognition o...See more
Is it possible to load 16-bit Microsoft software and use the program, perhaps virtualizing Windows XP (it is necessary to have an XP license number to use it)? P. S. I am currently using Windows 10 on...See more
Excellent. . . . . . The best of the best. For me, one of the top 10 software due to its utility. I forgot about viruses; I only use V. Box for browsing. And if the virtual system becomes unstable due...See more
With each version, it improves. It is fast enough to open documents or run applications (not games). You can even have images of multiple operating systems simultaneously (Win7, XP, Vista...)....
