Creating a Virtual Machine

--------------------------

1. Launch VMware Workstation on Mac OS.

2. Click on the '+' icon located near the top left-hand side of the main window.

3. In the 'Welcome to the Wizard' dialog box, select 'I will install macOS Server or later version myself.'

4. Select 'macOS High Sierra (or newer)' as your operating system and click Continue.

5. Choose where you want to save your virtual machine's files and click Next.

6. Enter a name for your VM, set the amount of RAM allocated if needed then select how many processor cores are available under 'Processors' tab before finishing up with 'Finish'.

7. You'll now see an option asking whether or not to download additional components required by macOS High Sierra - we recommend checking this box but ultimately it's up to you!

8. Once the installation process is complete, your virtual machine should be fully functional and ready for use.
