We have already introduced how to install VMware VIRTUAL machine on Windows host. In this section, we will use the VMware software to install Windows system.
Antecedents to review
Virtual machine is a concept relative to the real physical machine. It is a new computer created by software or hardware on the basis of the computer we are currently using.
This article mainly introduces VMware virtual machine, download and install VMware software and then install the operating system can simulate the effect of another computer, this simulated computer is virtual machine.

VMware provides the environment for installing virtual machines, and whether a real virtual machine is Windows or Linux depends on what operating system you want to install.
The easiest way to install an OS is to download the OS image file. After VMware recognizes the image file, it installs the OS step by step.
So the first thing we need to do is look for the image file, which means we need to determine which version of the operating system we want to install.
There are many kinds of Windows operating system, including Win7,Win8 and Win10, as well as the flagship edition and home edition.
If we buy a real computer, we should definitely think about it, after all the money is worth it, but the virtual machine we want to install is free, so we can choose from so many versions!
If you have a clear goal, you can download the corresponding operating system based on actual requirements.
If there is no clear goal, might as well and I install a virtual machine similar to this machine, one operation is more familiar, and can be in the virtual machine for any experiment.
So, first I want to see the system version of this machine, so I decided to install the same Win7 flagship version!
Choose My Computer > Right-click Properties > View computer properties, my computer is Windows 7 Flagship edition
Now that the VM operating system is known, where can we download the image file of the target VM?
Here I recommend https://msdn. Itellyou. Cn/website, easy to use, praise!

So many versions of the above is not a little dazzling, there is any difference between specific versions and their own suitable for which one please Baidu rational analysis!
The following 64-bit flagship edition and with a service pack operating system as an example to demonstrate, mainly to create a host machine and the same operating environment, convenient for subsequent secret experiments!
Iso image file, cn stands for Simplified Chinese and Windows_7 stands for Win7 operating system. Sp1 indicates Service Package 1, X64 indicates the 64-bit operating system, DVD indicates the DVD installation mode,677408 should be the version number, and. Iso is the suffix of the image file.

Because the image file itself is relatively large, it is recommended to use professional download tools, here is the use of thunderbolt download magnetic link.
Image file: cn_windows_7_ultimate_WITH_SP1_x64_DVD_u_677408.iso, which suffix is.iso, go to do not decompress! Don’t decompress! Don’t decompress!
The installation image
Prepare the downloaded image file: cn_windows_7_ultimate_x64_dvD_x15-66043.iso
Open the VMware software and choose File > Create VM or choose Create VM from the home page.
Generally speaking, the installation process is relatively simple. Use the default Settings for the previous configurations. The actual installation process may take a long time.
VMware can only identify the basic information of the image file, the specific version information still needs to be manually calibrated, download the image file is Win7 flagship version, so the installed version is also Win7 flagship version.
After some columns of installation and configuration are completed, there is the last step to confirm the configuration. After confirming all is correct, click Finish to actually install the VIRTUAL machine!
Installation process may require the input of product key and set the user, these operations and the newly bought computer just boot operation exactly the same, Baidu find the corresponding version of the product key, you can set the login user can not set the user.
The installation is successful!
After installing the virtual machine, any secret experiments can be performed on the virtual machine, no longer worry about accidentally damaging the physical machine!
Recall summary
VMware software provides a virtual machine environment that requires only an operating system, most of which are.iso image files, to create a virtual machine.
The image file must be at least 3 GB. It takes time to download the image file. You can use a professional third-party download tool to download the image file.
The VM configuration is simple. Use the recommended default Settings. Do not change the recommended Settings unless you have special requirements or understand the options you are setting.
During VM installation, the VM may be restarted for several times. Please wait patiently and do not interrupt the INSTALLATION.
