Windows 10: new to VM

i've never used a VM and my understanding is pretty limited. hoping to learn. couple questions. most stuff i read suggests VMware and virtual box. any reason why i should pick one over the other? security is my main focus. so far i only know about a few things, no shared folders, use two different OS, encrypting guest system. what else can be done to protect my data? alot of what i read talks highly of linux. any reason i should use OSX? don't know anything about either of them but i believe OSX is more widely used so assuming there are more threats for it than linux.

TY for info.

WooHoo, that worked!

Thanks for the suggestion. Creating a new VM using the existing vhdx got the VM going again.

Thank you,
