#IS VIRTUALBOX FREE PORTABLE#
Yes, the portable version doesn’t need any kind of installation, we just need to download, extract and run it to create and use virtual machines. I will not say this is a perfect alternative because it is a VirtualBox with the only difference of portability as compared to the standard version. MobaLiveCD can be installed under Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 10. It can also be executed from a USB stick and, with its size of only 1.6 MB that means we can even share it on Whatsapp or emails to test Linux ISOs instantly. Now you can simply select the ISO file and start a Linux distribution of your choice, for example.įurthermore, MobaLiveCD doesn’t even have to be installed. With MobaLiveCD, the last two steps are eliminated. Thus no need to burn ISO files and restart the computer to experience the LIVE ISO images of Linux distros which is not possible generally earlier if you wanted to try a Linux Live CD such as Ubuntu or CentOS, it was always necessary to burn the corresponding ISO images onto a CD/DVD and then restart the computer. You can load and execute ISO files from Linux Live CDs. MobaLiveCD as a Virtual Box alternative also uses the free emulator “Quemu”, a so-called virtualizer which enables the images to run under Windows in a window to virtualize different operating system with best possible performance. However, it is not for regular users and one should have some good knowledge of Linux to work with it.

Thus, the only Linux users can install it, this just like XEN, Type 1 kind of hypervisor. Thanks to the KVM driver, which is embedded directly in the Linux kernel, these processes can use their kernel and user modes. KVM provides the option to boot operating systems under Linux as a separate process. The guest system no longer has to be adapted.
To support hardware virtualization, processors from Intel with VT technology or processors from AMD with AMD-V technology should be used. Since KVM is embedded directly in the kernel, this additional layer is no longer necessary. Other virtualization software sometimes works with so-called hypervisors. The software itself is built into the kernel and is supplied with modern Linux systems. The additional tool kqemu also enables a significant increase in speed on x86 computers.ĭownload Qemu Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM)Īnother free open source software in the list is KVM (Kernel Virtual Machine) the virtualization of operating systems is simplified under Linux. It can also be easily used on the USB stick as portable software. QEMU can emulate the following CPU types: x86, Intel x86-64 and AMD64, PowerPC, ARM, Alpha, m86k (Coldfire) – MIPS and Sparc32 / 64. The user interface is completely in English.

QEMU as an alternate virtual machine to run on the operating systems GNU / Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, OpenSolaris, DOS and Mac OS X runs.
#IS VIRTUALBOX FREE WINDOWS 10#
VMWare s fully supported by the Windows 10 as well including Windows 7 and previous generations. Thus, the cross-platform facility is there however, it is free not opens source and distribution is for personal usage only for commercial purpose, the user has to buy a license. The first thing, it is available for Windows and Linux (Debian, Ubuntu, RedHat, CentOS & more…), in case of macOS users, VMware fusion is there.
If you ask any tech expert to suggest VirtualBox alternative with easy to use graphical user interface then VMware Player will be the first suggestion. Still, I would recommend you to stick with VBox unless you don’t need its alternatives.
Yes, there are few alternative platforms for virtualization that are not graphically intuitive and easy to use like Oracle VB but better in terms of performance such as KVM.
