    Windows Professional Upgrade using VM Ware Fusion


    I have an old licensed 32 bit version of Windows 7 Professional which I purchased many years ago..I have since upgraded to Windows 10 32 bit Professional using the license key from my Windows 7 ProfessionalI run this version of Windows on an Apple computer using VM Ware Fusion 12.Is there an upgrade path to either the latest version of Windows 10 professional or Windows 11 professional? I would like to also upgrade from the 32 to 64 bit version.I'm looking for the easiest method. I'm curious whether it would be best to install Windows 10 professional 64 bit first and then upgrade to 11 from

    :)

    Win 7 Installation with VM Ware

    I have VM ware installed on my Win 10 PC and within VM Ware I installed Win 7 using an unused license. I am about to reformat my entire SSD and reinstall Win 10 and everything else that I have on PC. Do I have to uninstall Win 7 in the VM ware setup
    or do anything special so that I can reinstall Win 7 in the virtual machine?

    Windows Professional Upgrade using VM Ware Fusion

    VM Ware Update

    To all of you who still use VM Ware clients on your CPU, instead of WCG Crunching or regular SMP Folding, we've got a new update that's come along that should increase system usability as well as increase PPD.

    VM Ware Player now supports 4 threads as per version 3.0, whereas prior versions were only 2 threaded versions. As such, to maximize an i7, you needed 4 clients folding at once. With each VM eating upwards of 1GB of memory each and each client clamoring for CPU space, this quickly drained resources. Now you can do the same with only 2 VM Ware players.

    User feedback can be found here



    Original source of my information here. I do have an i7 that I plan on switching over to this in the short term. So before I switch it over to WCG in the long run, I'll do this and post up the results I get.
