VirtualBox is an easy-to-use virtualization tool for Windows.
VirtualBox is a multi-platform and open-source virtualization tool for Windows, and other operating systems, that lets you create virtual disc units in which you can install a guest operating system within the one you normally use on your computer, using it in the same way as if it was installed.
The virtual unit on which the system runs is completely customizable and lets you change the virtual hardware according to your needs, be it the processor, RAM, or the storage space. You need to have in mind that these take resources from your real hardware equipment, so you need a powerful enough computer to run and interact between the host and guest operating systems.
The program supports almost every version of the latest operating systems, such as Windows 10, Mac OS Yosemite, and the latest versions of Ubuntu and any other Linux distribution. The benefits of virtualization are many; the most obvious one is that you can use programs that are exclusive to a certain platform, not to mention that you can carry your virtual units wherever you want, and make safety copies of them too. An interesting feature in VirtualBox is that it lets you create instances in the guest operating system so you can resume your activity exactly where you left it the last time.
