My question is about VMWare. I read I can use VMWare to get another OS on my notebook (for example). I have a few questions:

  1. Is it installed in the current OS, like any other application is?
  2. Can it affect in any way the current OS?
  3. I read that someone could get the OS to boot again after installing VMWare, is it possible?
  4. Is the VMWare Workstation what I want?

Thank you 🙂

    Not exactly sure what you are asking.
    1. VMWare installs just like any other application.
    2. Operating Systems running in the VM generally don’t affect your data outside the VM, unless you set up syncing folder sor network shared folders.
    3. I don’t know how that would happen, but I can’t tell you with 100% certainty that it couldn’t happen to you.
    4. I’ve been using VirtualBox for a while, mostly with linux type OSes. It’s free, and I’ve had zero problems.
