Is it safe https://mac.getutm.app/ utm for Mac.
I am not downloading the paid version in App Store. I am downloading from the website given above.
Your help will be appreciated. Thank you

Yes, it's safe when acquired through the App Store or the site you linked to. The only difference between them is you pay to download the app via the App Store, and it's free on their own site.
I use it to run Windows XP on an M4 Pro mini. Even though XP is Intel only, it's also a very small (disk space footprint) and old OS. I actually runs pretty fast even with the Intel CPU emulation.
If you're thinking of running an Intel version of Windows 11 in UTM, don't. Deathly slow doesn't even begin to describe how Win 11 for Intel runs in UTM.
If Win 11 is your goal, download the free ARM version of VMware and run Win 11 ARM within that. With both VMware and the guest OS being ARM native, it runs at nearly normal speed. Win 11 ARM can run most Intel apps without issue.

Did a test for Age of Empires II.
It no workie in XP. Mainly because the game tells you when launching it that it requires DirectX, and UTM doesn't support that.
It does work in Windows 11 ARM, within VMware, as long as you right click on the app to select Properties and change the compatibility mode to an older OS. I chose XP, SP3.
Ahh, thanks for that bit of info. Very helpful.
thank you, I was asking it is virus or it is safe?
VMware is virus free? I am actually new to apple ecosystem so i don't know. The one which is most famous in app store parallel is very costly.
How to download the software. I can find only sketchy sites
If I download utm from app store will be there a chance for viruses because I VMware has many things I don't know how to do and I am using virtual machine for the first time .
I want to download a Java coding software named blue jay. It doesn't work in mac nice. I want to use in windows because it is windows software. It is a Oracle supported software
I will also try to use python and other coding language using the vm. I use a desktop, mac mini m4
brother I know, but little tensioned about the software as I said this is my first time in Mac OS.
Why are you giving me a lecture about improving Mac OS security, my simple question is how to download a safe vm.
And there ya' go.
it was easy using with utm's own iso software. thank you Kurt for your support
