It is 10 times better than macOS Big Sur. Because the design, features, updates, functions, is more unique than the older versions of macOS. At Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC), Apple has announced all the features and preview of macOS Monterey in a convenient way. However, macOS Monterey has got too many amazing features that will satisfy while using it. We are going to show you how to install macOS Monterey on VirtualBox on Windows PC.

Apple has released many operating systems at once like every year. Such as iOS 15, iPadOS 15, watchOS 15, and the one and only macOS 12 (Monterey). All of these are getting more unique whenever they release a new version for that. You have to keep in mind that these new operating systems contain amazing features and functions.

  3. Hello. “Step 4: Add Commands to CMD” has typos in the command, and the screenshot shows the command is not working. You also need to add Virtualbox to windows path so VBoxManage.exe can be used.

    I’ve tried following all the steps and step #5 would not boot. Re-doing all the steps again but so far no luck booting.

  4. Ben VirtualBox için komutları bu şekilde çalıştırdım.
