It is the fifteenth release of Mac computer of Apple thus it is the successor to High Serra.Downloading of these files will give you access to many new features of macOS Mojave including new theme mode, new stacks for applications.

I was pretty unsure myself whether I would want to jump onto a Mac ever since I first googled Samurai Jack when I was like 9 years old (don’t ask me why) on my computer which ran on Microsoft’s Windows.

Since then, it took me a while to get used to Apple’s macOS and the way I did it was rather than buying the Mac itself I tried it out on my Windows PC.

So, if you want to try Apple’s macOS on your Windows 10 too here’s how you can install macOS Sierra Final in VirtualBox on Windows 10.

Note

This guide is using macOS Sierra 10.12 which is the final version. If you instead don’t want to get macOS Sierra and you are looking for the newer version which is macOS High Sierra then you can always follow this guide: How to Install macOS High Sierra in VirtualBox on Windows 10

VirtualBox is one tiny, powerful dude, and it is capable of installing macOS onto your Windows 10 computer as an app.

It works like a charm with Sierra, but before you get onto the guide, there are three little requirements that your Windows 10 computer is going to need in order for you to install the macOS onto your computer. 🙂

The minimum requirements that you are going to need are:

• a 64-Bit Computer

• at least 4GB RAM

• a Dual-Core processor

Got all of that? Splendid! Once you have got that out of the way, you can now proceed to install macOS Sierra in VirtualBox on Windows 10.

Spyro - enter the dragonfly iso. If you haven't noticed yet, we have a retro game of the day feature (top-right of the screen) wherein we feature a new retro title every single day! Now, you can vote for your favorite games and allow them to have their moment of glory. Click on the button below to nominate Spyro - Enter the Dragonfly (USA) for Retro Game of the Day. Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly is an okay addition to your library for the Dolphin emulator. The goal is to collect 6,800 gems and 90 dragonflies, but only 87 of the dragonflies are collectable because the UFO minigame in Crop Circle Country (in the barn) is unaccessible, as is the slide in Honey Marsh.

Here are the links to the downloads that you’ll be needing to install macOS Sierra onto your VirtualBox successfully. 🙂

Now I know what you’re thinking, “Which one of the two macOS Sierra 10.12 Final download links should I download from?”

The reason why I have included two Google Drive download links for you is that the (One Full) download link has the entire macOS Sierra 10.12 Final file from Apple as one 5GB file. So if you are alright with letting your computer run all night to download the 5GB file then you can go for this

The (5 of 5) download link has the entire macOS Sierra 10.12 Final file as 5 separate 1GB files, so if your internet connection is pretty weak or if you just simply want to take your time and download one by one then you can go for this. 🙂

Once, you are done with the download ‘stuff’, you can now go on with the 5 quick and simple steps below.

How to Install macOS Sierra in VirtualBox on Windows 10: 5 Steps

  3. Then select Extract Here.

Note

Also, make sure that you have enabled Virtualization in your computer’s BIOS.

Step 2: Install VirtualBox

  1. Download the latest version of VirtualBox (I have included the latest (June 2018) link for VirtualBox for you above)

Step 3: Create a New Virtual Machine

Step 4: Edit Your Virtual Machine

  3. After that, under General, you should be able to see the System. Click that.

Before you add the code onto VirtualBox with your Command Prompt, you have a few little changes that you have to make things easier for you.

  1. Replace the phrase “Your VM Name” in the code (below) with your own virtual machine name which you can find in General, then under Basic. It’s best if you copy the code below into your Notepad and thenreplace the areas where it says “Your VM Name” with your own virtual machine name before moving on the next step.

I've searched and it seems like it's supposed to work as claimed by this post from an Oracle employee on the Virtualbox forums :

Did no one really notice that VirtualBox supports typical DMG images of CDs and DVDs on every supported host platform?

Can someone who used DMG files with Virtualbox on Windows confirm or deny this ?

VirtualBox does support DMG files. As you can see in my screenshot, when browsing from the VirtualBox medium finder, Explorer lists DMG in the 'supported file types' section.

The supported file-types section gets its' information from the Windows file associations that are set when you install a program. During the installation, the program will declare which file types it supports. In this case we can see the VirtualBox has declared support for DMG format.

I've been finally able to use a DMG file as an optical disc image in Virtualbox on Windows.

It seems like the first image I used wasn't compatible, despite being successfully recognized and extracted by 7-zip. However, an InstallESD.dmg image from a Mac OS X setup package worked just fine and booted in Virtualbox on a Windows 7 host.

It only supports ISO DMGs. I tried to connect a Fat32 USB stick image and it says corrupted file system. Apparently it was expecting CDFS.

If you try to connect DMG as hard drive, it the dmg extension is not in supported image list.
