Windows 10 is now officially available for the users, but not as a free upgrade for all its users. It is not yet perfect and still checking out for the novelty factor. Instead of taking risk by installing a new production machine immediately after the major release of Windows 10 OS, using it on Virtual box is the best technique for the time being. As everyone are highly interested to try out all the latest features on the new OS, setting up Windows 10 on a Virtual Box is the best way. This helps you to check out all the new features on Windows 10 without putting the productivity in jeopardy. Here is a detailed guide that helps you to install Windows 10 on Virtualbox.
Steps to Install Windows 10 on Virtualbox
Installing a new OS inside a virtual machine is always a good technique that doesn’t affect your system. Virtualbox is a free virtualization software that enables you to run Windows 10 on your current working device. Later, you can remove it if you wish to continue with your existing OS. All this process takes about 30 minutes or may be longer depending on the speed of your system. Here are the simple steps that helps you install Windows 10 on Virtualbox.

Step 7: Begin Installation Process
