    Why does it matter folks care about window XP security when I'm running vinal cutter that's...


    Okay I'm searching threads on how to go from Windows 10 back to XP... All I hear is how people don't want to do that because security reasons and things are outdated and what not... Okay that's cool if you're doing banking over the internet and Wi-Fi and all that stuff... But there are some of us that have a dedicated computer it's not hooked to the Wi-Fi they are hardwired to a vinyl cutter... Why would it be so hard to give information on how to erase a computer and install a Windows XP disk on a computer that come stock with Windows 10???

    The easiest way - and I mean easy - is to install Windows XP in a virtual machine. VirtualBox (from Oracle) and VMWare Workstation Player (from - you guessed it - VMWare) are both free and easy to learn. Furthermore, there are step-by-step tutorials
    on the web that show you how to use them.

    Technically, you're supposed to have a valid license for Windows XP to run it in a virtual machine. However, since XP is no longer supported I don't know if it matters any more.

    Bear in mind that since Windows XP is not supported it is a security risk, so you want to keep it off the internet.
