Can I use my iLok on a virtual machine?

Asked 5 months ago
Using an iLok on a virtual machine is generally possible, but it depends on the specific configuration of the virtual environment and the software being used. Many users have successfully used an iLok with virtual machines by ensuring that the virtual machine software allows direct access to the USB port where the iLok is connected. It is essential to configure the virtual machine settings to recognize the iLok as a USB device. However, the performance and compatibility can vary depending on the host operating system, the virtual machine software, and the digital audio workstations or applications being utilized. For the most reliable experience, it is recommended to consult the documentation provided by both the virtual machine software and the software requiring the iLok. Additionally, reviewing any relevant resources on the iLok website may provide useful insights and specific guidance on using an iLok within a virtual environment.
