What is Virtual PC?
A virtual computer is the installation of a new computer inside the computer you are using.
However, the main difference of this computer is that it is fully software, not hardware. In other words, you install the virtual pc application as if you were installing a program on your computer through software.
Computer users have to use more than one operating system for various reasons (eg Windows 98 and Windows XP, or Windows and Linux, etc.). To do this, they first divide their HDs on their computers with a program such as fdisk or Partition Magic and then install their operating systems on new partitions they create.
Microsoft Virtual PC allows you to install 'virtual' operating systems on the Windows operating system you are using without splitting your HD.
The operating system that you will install using Virtual PC will be displayed in a window like Explorer, other Windows applications such as Word (there is also a full-screen viewing option).
What is VMware?
VMware is a virtual machine software that allows the guest operating system to run within the host operating system. After activating the guest operating system with VMware, you can install application programs on this guest operating system and provide the services it supports. For example, while your main operating system is Linux, you can install Windows 2000 or Windows XP and run any application developed for Windows on the guest Windows platform. The opposite is possible, so you can install Linux while your main operating system is Windows XP.
VMware is a virtual machine emulator (emulator) and emulates the machine itself rather than a specific operating system, so it is up to you which operating system you install on this virtual machine. In other words, this program completely imitates a computer, including the BIOS.
What does it do?
1-Energy saving
2-Space Saving
3-Ease of management and backup
4-Different operating system experience at the same time (Being able to use 2 different environments at the same time: You do not need to restart your computer to switch to other operating systems installed on your system.)
5-Possibility to learn and test different systems
Of course, Since Nothing Is Perfect, There Can Be Disadvantages And Problems:
1-A high-configuration computer may be required as more than one operating system will run simultaneously in the system.
2-There maybe some hardware problems in the virtual operating system.
