Convert Physical Computer Into Virtual Machine 

I wish there was a video from you for everything in life. Straight to the point, concise, all in a wonderfully pleasing Latino whistling sibilant accent.

Thank you. Video was perfect & it helped me a lot.

Outstanding video! Will the virtual machine created in the video be accessible on a network? Will the VM only work with VMWare?

Hello, this is consider as hot conversion? how about the cold conversion?

Do you have to activate windows with a new key after the migration from physical to virtual machine? Thanks.

How to run VHD n VHDK type virtual hdd created of this physical HDD in other pc using VMware.

What about Windows activation issues? Will the newly created Windows VM be activated correctly or do I have to call Microsoft or something? Do I have to uninstall my computer's Windows install after the conversion process to avoid activation conflicts? Thanks.

Can you create a Virtual Machine from a hard drive that has Windows Vista in it from another computer?

thanks. Nicely said :)

So, you put an OS inside an OS. It would be interesting to install a bare metal hypervisor and "import" this file, to a new machine, so several systems could run at the same time on the host on top of the hypervisor, so, if one OS crash, the others would remain intact. This way you did, if the "main" win7 crashes, your virtual box will crash too and all the OS running inside. Now, what hypervisor type 1 we could install ? ESXi ? Well, ESXi has a problem, we can only control through another machine. If you know a good hypervisor type 1 free that could be controlled by the same machine, please contact me. Thanks.

I have window 10 Pro system(I7,16gb ram,1tb HDD) in my office and I have created RDP connection from local and public. it is working fine for RDP connection. 1. I have installed VMWare workstation 15 on the same system and created VM with window server 2012 R2. 2. I am able to access VM using RDP session in the local network. 3. I want to do an RDP connection from the public IP address. 4. What do I need to do? I have tried with all the aspect what I know. but no luck. Please, can anyone help with this issue?

i wonder if all those already installed applications works fine on the newly created virtual machine or we have to install them one by one again in this newly virtual machine?

Doing a virtual of your own PC is not a problem can please try to use another PC and let me know how it goes

so this truly converts a physical machine to vm? so i could then get rid of the physical machine if needed?
