That means anything you do in the VM won’t influence your main OS and your device.

Its purpose is to separate and isolate the Virtual Machine from your default operating system. The software that runs the Virtual Machine is called a hypervisor. Even though the VM is a virtual environment, it has its own storage where you can save different files, and it can connect to the internet. The best way to understand what a virtual machine is is to imagine it as a file on your computer, that acts as a separate actual computer. A virtual machine exists in a virtual environment and it uses its own virtual devices, resources, and storage. Close the Command Prompt, go back one step, then continue as normal and you'll be able to complete the Windows 11 installation process.A Virtual Machine, or VM for short, is like a separate computer system inside your system but it doesn’t exist in physical form. This will add the necessary instructions into the registry to skip checks for both TPM and Secure Boot. REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig /v BypassTPMCheck /t REG_DWORD /d 1REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig /v BypassSecureBootCheck /t REG_DWORD /d 1 When you reach the error screen, hit Shift + F10 to open a Command Prompt and enter the following two commands.

So, we'll just tell our VM to skip those checks. Likewise, some can inject a virtual TPM, but most, again like VirtualBox, cannot currently. Some VM software, such as VMware, can handle the Secure Boot aspect, but VirtualBox, for example, cannot. This is down to two key Windows 11 hardware requirements: TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot. Whichever virtual machine tool you're using to install a Windows 11 VM with on Linux there's one thing you're more than likely going to come up against: an error saying your PC can't install it.
