What is macOS Virtual Machine?

A Virtual Machine is one which does not exist physically but is made to exist using the VMWare Workstation software.

The VMware Workstation Player is like any other application or program on your Windows computer but when opened it takes you to the world of the Mojave; the macOS Virtual Machine.

In order to create this virtual machine, there are various things you will need. One is the Mojave ISO image which is the same one Mac users would use to install the operating system. You will also need to download the VMware Player which is a free program and the Patch Tool. More on these below:
