Virtual machines are a great alternative to partitioning your hard drive to install Windows using Boot Camp.

I'm covering all the major virtual machines for your benefit and this time it's all about VMWare's Fusion 11.5 virtual machine software. They're similar, but have a few different steps in the set up process.

Here's how to get VMWare's Fusion 11.5 on your Mac and then install and run Windows 10 from within your macOS operating system without having to switch hard drive partitions.

Check your system and hardware requirements

Before you get started with installation of Fusion 11.5, make sure your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for both hardware and software.

The minimum system requirements for installing and using VMware Fusion 11.5 are:

Hardware

• All Macs launched in 2011 or later are supported (except the 2012 Mac Pro 'Quad Core' using the Intel Xeon W3565 Processor. The CPU architecture is incompatible).
• Also supports the 2010 Mac Pro 'Six Core', 'Eight Core' and 'Twelve Core' models.

First off, you should be backing up your Mac on a regular basis, but even if you don't do so multiple times per day, you should definitely do so right now, before you continue with this guide. Seriously. Back it up.
