1 Account = 1 Virtual Machine with windows 7 |

Re: VMWare OS As for the Windows XP Tiny I have (it has 3 different versions available)....the .nfo file has the following info:
1. Full Windows XP (nothing is removed)
2. TinyXP (large components removed, but usable for most)
3. MicroXP (extremely small, only takes 221Mb of HDD space)
All three versions are updated to February 2010.
If you want to read the .nfo file yourself let me know and I can upload it somewhere for you to download and read, I don't feel like copy/pasting all the info here. |

TheBosss | 02-23-2017 10:48 PM | Re: VMWare OS Why do you use VM instead of new user accounts? Just easier to handle all in one place? Any other advantages? |

Emanresu | 02-26-2017 05:14 PM | Re: VMWare OS You can create a master VM, leave it alone, create linked clones based off of that master VM. You will save a ton of hard drive space. In the menu go to VM, menu, clone... |

I make all my VM's by cloning a fresh VM but I don't save any hard drive space by doing so. It's just faster than doing a fresh install of the OS each time.
@everyone seeking the link - just google it. It's very common. I always torrent my .ISO's but there are plenty of direct download links available also. https://sharewbb.com/windows-xp-professional/
@ErkDaddy - using VM's opposed to user accounts is a faster, more convenient, and more secure. There are countless threads here explaining the advantages of VM's. (Google search works better than the forum search) | All times are GMT -5. The time now is 04:08 PM. | |
