It isn’t unusual for updates to run for an hour or more.īe sure to install the VirtualBox “guest additions” within your Windows VM, once you’ve got your Windows VM up and running. Don’t expect to be fully productive on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, when Microsoft sends out Windows updates.
One thing that I find amazing, is you have to run updates on all those Windows Virtual machines. On my 4 gig (ancient) iMac, it works, but its pretty slow. My 8 gig Win 7 box works fine with one or two “guest OS’s”. Virtual box works on Linux, Mac and Windows host machines. I use VirtualBox to create virtual machines for Powershell testing.
I’m at the point where I am going to deploy some PowerShell scripts to my end-users, and I want to test the scripts on a fresh installation of Windows before trying them on the user’s workstations.
