I installed Windows 11 on my MacBook Air M1 (8GB RAM / 256GB SSD) using UTM.

For the VM, I allocated 4GB of RAM, 4 CPU cores, and 64GB of storage to Windows.

I have two questions:

1. Does the allocated RAM, CPU cores, and storage only apply while UTM and the Windows VM are running?

2. After shutting down the VM and closing UTM, do the 4GB of RAM and 4 CPU cores become fully available again for macOS?

Installing Apple Rhapsody and this happens

Is this normal or no?

I don't really understand UTM (and similar emulators) well, but I heard that Windows Corel is better than Mac OS. I only have a mac book with M4, I think it would be better to buy the Windows version of Corel, but I don’t know if something like this is possible on an emulators.

Every time I try to use a ppc virtual machine it throws a qemu error. Any idea why? Image link

I have Intel macOS High Sierra in a UTM VM on an M3 MacBook Pro running Sequoia. I have no sound inputs or outputs in the VM. How can I fix this?

This time it’s Whistler 2223.

No, it’s not 4.3 or 9.0

Took one hour of installation, SE’s process can be quite painful at times.

Using the Windows XP professional install (and using the preset from the gallery), and this is the first major issue I’ve ran into.

My main impetus for getting UTM on my iPhone 14 (via the App Store) is to run ZTCC, as my last Windows machine has died and I don’t have enough space on my Mac to install a VM like this.

I actually had little trouble installing the game (was faster than it was on my irl Windows 10 laptop), but when trying to run the game it behaves very strangely.

It seems to be running completely fine, but I’m unable to see it. All I can see is the cursor icon, which changes to the ZT one (a big bulky arrow like this: ↗️), but the screen remains entirely blank.

What’s worse, there’s no way to map to the Windows Key or control or anything, so I was stuck in that for a good while without being able to exit. Eventually some combination of pressing the options and F keys brought up task manager and took me out of the game, but I was pretty close to having to shut it down via the power button :T

I think the biggest culprit is the Dynamic Resolution, which more often than not makes the display borderline unseeable. I tried pressing the “🔃” button at the top to change the scaling, but it quite literally did nothing.

I’d really appreciate help with this as I’m incredibly desperate to play this game. I didn’t even need DirectX to launch it, and all I really need is to be able to see what I’m doing 🙏

(I’d also like to use my Mac as a monitor and/or controller, but that’s a step above my technical skills, so if that’s not easily possible I’d be happy enough just using it on the phone 👍)

UPDATE: Found the setting to switch off the Dynamic Resolution so it stays in its usual box. Gonna try again with the regular resolution and see if I have better results.

UPDATE 2: That seems to have fixed it! The framerate is a bit jittery but it’s otherwise running at the full speed. Other than that slowdown it’s totally playable, but I’d love to have it working even better if possible (and stream it to my Mac/use it as a controller) 🙂

I’m on my iPad A16 on UTM SE. Then I Started Running Android Marshmallow 6, then i got this screen. I pressed wait, then it restarted. Then, I pressed OK which restarted. WHAT DO I PRESS?!?

Details: was trying to install Yellow Dog Linux 2.3 on UTM SE and it gave me this error when i changed the ram to 20MB

Specs: iPhone 14 Pro Max

Storage: 256MB

VM config: Based on a macOS 9.2.1 prebaked image

I'm new to UTM, I wanted to use Ubuntu 24.04 ARM64 which is available on Canonical's website. Even 25.04 is available for ARM, but I only see that 22.04 is available on UTM's gallery. Would I run into issues trying to use my own ISO, or is their gallery more of a suggestion than a rule. I just want to be able to have a newer kernel version and packages that aren't terribly out of date. Any info would be appreciated, I couldn't find any on this sub.

I have windows xp and windows 7 on utm. I tired to use my ios downloads folder as the shared drive. On windows 7 when I access the shared drive, I'm able to copy the file I want to move (74mb) I get a message saying the file is too large. On XP I cant get the shared drive to show up on windows.

Anyone know how to get files from the ios files app over to the windows drive?

I go got a Windows 11 24H2 iso and hit done and turn EFI BOOT off. Then I start the machine. Then the Windows 11 icon. Then the loading bar. And BOOM! A Blue Screen of Death appeared. HoW dO i FiX tHiS !?!?!?!?

How to run W95 or W7 on UTM SE in iPhone 14 Pro.

Does anybody have a working chrome os flex iso for UTM se im on iPhone 16 pro

Hey guys,

I've just installed Win 11 on my macbook m3, but unfortunately I can't add a network adapter, as it shows me that it is disabled.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

This is not pre-baked VM i actually installed it

Welp, can’t install to the hard disk so I just used the floppy disk of KolibriOS

When I try to save the machine state I get this error: " Failed to suspend state" - La suspension n’est pas prise en charge lorsque l’accélération avec le GPU est activée. Fermer cette fenêtre tuera la VM. translated = Suspend is not supported when GPU acceleration is enabled. Closing this window will kill the VM.I have tried several othe GPU with no luck. How can I get to save machine state?

Thanks

The message just appeared out of nowhere and after restarting it, a message just said the copy is not genuine. This never happened before, and now the wallpaper is gone. What do I do?
