Hey everyone,
I am trying to set up a VM on my Linux Mint pc for Windows 11. I already have the pc dual boot linux and Windows. My goal is to set up a Windows 11 VM and then delete Windows partition from my pc. I don’t want to dual boot into windows anymore, but I need it for a few applications.
Is there a way to get the key I already bought and use it for the VM I am going to set up?
Side note, what VM software do you recommend? VirtualBox seems popular, but would like some advice.

No idea, I get very bad performances
Thanks so much for the response. You said you get terrible performance?
I don’t expect 1:1 performance like a dual boot but when I tried Virtual Manager (virt-man) Windows was lagging really bad
Could it have been your hardware on the host? My computer is pretty beefy
Maybe the virtualization was disabled
BIOS one? Always on. I have to see what happened
My host maybe? Ryzen 7 5800x 32GB RAM (8/16 to Windows) Installed on a SSD GPU (useful?) RX 6950XT
My guess is you didn’t install virtio drivers. That should help immensely with graphic acceleration.
Maybe. I should try again at home.
