How to Setup macOS 10.13.6 on VirtualBox 6.0.8 in Windows 10
- Chrisrrr last edited. I have gone to the Archives, where the latest version for Mac is Opera 12.16, which I've downloaded. However, I've read elsewhere that OS X 10.6.8 will run Opera 25, which doesn't seem to be available from the Opera home site.

In this article, we will install macOS on Windows 10 using the Oracle VM VirtualBox program without the need for a Mac computer.
In our previous articles, we installed High Sierra with Oracle and VMware software.
You can also install the Mac OS Mojave operating system, which is the 10.14 Beta version of the macOS operating system, on the desktop or laptop computer with both VMware and VMware ESXi.
NOTE: You can also install a Mac operating system on your computer using the Oracle VM VirtualBox 6.0.8 version.
First, install VirtualBox on Windows 10 and then follow the steps below to install macOS step by step.
Step 1 | Download High Sierra Image
You can use different setup files to setup a macOS VM on VirtualBox or VMware. In our previous article, we prepared and released the macOS 10.13.6 ISO file for you.
Please note that this setup image file requires a computer with an Intel processor!
To download the Mac OS 10.13.6 image to your computer, click on the image below to see the related article.
Step 2 | How to Create a New Virtual Machine for High Sierra 10.13.6 on VBox
After building VBox, you need to create a new VM. When creating a new virtual machine, you need to configure 2 processors and minimum 4 GB RAM size for the VM.
We use VMware Unlocker to run macOS system on VMware. On VBox, you only need to run the necessary code for the VM.
To create a virtual machine on VBox, click on the image below to see the related article.
Step 3 | How to Setup macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 Step by Step
After setting up a new VM on VirtualBox, add the ISO file you downloaded to the virtual machine.
Then, click on the image below for the step-by-step installation of High Sierra 10.13.6 with VBox.
The Mac OS 10.13.6 installation steps are exactly the same as the Mac OS 10.13.4 setup!
Step 4 | How to Change Screen Resolution in Mac VM
After setting High Sierra 10.13.6 with VBox on Windows 10, the only thing remaining is to configure the screen resolution.
To change screen resolution you first need to turn off the VM. Then click on the image below to change the screen resolution.
Final Word
In this article, we have installed macOS High Sierra 10.13.6 with the Oracle VM software on the Windows 10 operating system without the need for a Apple computer. Thanks for following us!

But before we begin.
Please make sure that you have downloaded the Oracle Virtualbox and the macOS Mojave ISO file from the given link.
Virtualbox: Download link
macOS Mojave Virtualbox image: Download link
I know you might be thinking of creating your own iso file but it’s a little time-consuming.
And that’s why I have already given the link for the Mojave image file.
Now I hope you have already downloaded all the given files & installed Virtualbox successfully.
Note:- Please check the VT-x or AMD-V virtualization feature must be enabled in your BIOS settings.
So Let’s get started & follow this step by step guide.
1. Open & Install Virtualbox Extension Pack
Now Open Virtualbox and install the Extension Pack from the given link. Download link
Now that you have installed the extension pack, it’s time to create a virtual machine.
2. Create a macOS Mojave Virtual Machine
Open Virtualbox and Click on the “New” button to create a macOS virtual machine.
Now type the name as “macOS Mojave“, type of OS as Mac OS X and the version of OS as Mac OS X (64-bit). And then Click on Next.
3. Memory Size (RAM)
Now select the amount of RAM to be allocated to the virtual machine. And to run macOS on Virtualbox, the minimum recommended RAM size is 2048Mb.
4. Setup a Virtual Hard Disk
Now the next step is to create a virtual disk for this machine. But here instead of creating a new virtual hard disk, we will import the macOS Mojave 10.14 disk image file which we have downloaded earlier. So Click on Use an existing virtual hard disk file.
And then click on the Folder icon and browse to the image file.
Now select the image file and Click Open.
And you can see that you have successfully created the macOS virtual machine and here comes the configuration part.
5. Configuring macOS Virtual Machine
Note:- All these settings are mandatory to run and install macOS Mojave on Virtualbox on Windows PC properly.
Now Click on Settings.
Now in the Next screen Go to System, then Click on Motherboard Tab and Select the Boot Order as Optical and Hard disk. And in the Extended Features Enable I/O APIC, Enable EFI (Special OSes only) and Hardware Clock in UTC Time. Click OK.
Next Go to Processor Tab. And select the minimum processor as 2 and Enable PAE/NX in the extended features. Click OK.
Further, Go to Display Settings and change the Video Memory to 128 MB or the maximum you can have.
Next, Go to the Storage tab and Enable the Use Host I/O Cache and Click OK.
Now, Go to the USB tab and Enable the USB 3.0 (xHCI) Controller and Click OK.
6. Modify Virtualbox Virtual Machine using Command Prompt
Note:- Before running the Command Prompt, please make sure that you have Closed the Virtualbox & it is not in the running state.
Also, I would recommend you to Restart or Reboot your pc before using these command-line codes.
Now add the following commands to Virtualbox Virtual Machine using Command Prompt (CMD). And to Open Command Prompt, click on Search and type “CMD” and Right Click on it and select Run as Administrator.
Now run each command one by one in the command prompt. And before running each command, please make sure to change the “Your VM Name” part with the name of the virtual machine that you have created earlier.
cd “C:Program FilesOracleVirtualBox”
VBoxManage.exe modifyvm “Your VM Name” –cpuidset 00000001 000106e5 00100800 0098e3fd bfebfbff
VBoxManage setextradata “Your VM Name” “VBoxInternal/Devices/efi/0/Config/DmiSystemProduct” “iMac11,3”
VBoxManage setextradata “Your VM Name” “VBoxInternal/Devices/efi/0/Config/DmiSystemVersion” “1.0”
VBoxManage setextradata “Your VM Name” “VBoxInternal/Devices/efi/0/Config/DmiBoardProduct” “Iloveapple”
VBoxManage setextradata “Your VM Name” “VBoxInternal/Devices/smc/0/Config/DeviceKey” “ourhardworkbythesewordsguardedpleasedontsteal(c)AppleComputerInc”
VBoxManage setextradata “Your VM Name” “VBoxInternal/Devices/smc/0/Config/GetKeyFromRealSMC” 1
Like I will replace “Your VM Name” with “macOS Mojave” in all the codes.
It will be easier if you first copy all the codes to a notepad file & edit them and then paste them in the CMD.
And you are done with the configuration part. Now comes the major part to install the macOS Mojave on Virtualbox Virtual machine.
