First, get Parallels Desktop Lite from the Mac App Store, it’s free to download*.How to Create a Mac OS Virtual Machine with Parallels Liteįor running macOS in a virtual machine we will use the free Parallels Lite app for Mac, beyond that you will need a MacOS installer either downloaded from the App Store, from a USB install drive, ISO, or elsewhere.
In the guide here, we will be creating a Macintosh virtual machine for running Mac OS on top of Mac OS, which can be helpful for testing out different apps and operating system versions, amongst other purposes. We have covered this broad topic many times before for purposes like running Windows 10 on a Mac with a VM, to running Ubuntu Linux in VirtualBox, to Snow Leopard in a VM, and others. This means there is no disk partitioning involved, the virtualized operating system runs just like any other application on your computer.
For some quick background, virtualization allows you to run another operating system in a confined virtual machine atop an existing operating system through an application layer.
