Can I run Windows on a Mac computer?

Asked 6 months ago
Yes, it is possible to run Windows on a Mac computer. Mac users have the option to install and run Windows using Apple's built-in Boot Camp utility. Boot Camp allows users to create a separate partition on their Mac's hard drive, dedicated to running Windows. Once installed, users can choose to boot into either the Mac operating system or Windows at startup. However, it is important to note that running Windows on a Mac using Boot Camp requires a valid Windows license. Alternatively, Mac users can also use virtualization software such as Parallels Desktop or VMware Fusion to run Windows alongside macOS without the need for partitioning the hard drive. Both methods provide the flexibility to use Windows applications on a Mac computer seamlessly.
