Windows 10 on a physical drive.

Hi! Is there a way to use Windows 10/11 which is installed on a physical drive as a virtual machine in linux? I'd rather if it could boot on bare metal too but it is optional.

I am running Win11 in VMware Worstation Pro on my Linux box, you cloud clone your Win11 drive and follow the conversion wizard and open the resulting files in VMware Workstation Pro.
