When?
Where?
Workstation player formerly known as VMware player is a free for personal use tool and you can download
this tool from the official website.
VMware download here just a basic search and you you're not going to do the pro here.
We're just going to download free version of it, which is actually does the job pretty much the same
as the open source applications.
But VMware is actually a faster than the Oracle VM VirtualBox.
That's why we're going to use this here and it has an VMware player has an.
Uh, like more features than the virtual box.
So that's another reason we are going to download and install it.
But you can also download the virtual box from its website, Oracle VM VirtualBox.
It's a free and open source tool.
As you can see, we are um, getting some error.
Here.
Okay.
You can download this from.
Yeah, that's not the website virtual box download.
We're having trouble with connecting VirtualBox websites, so we're going to download it from the Filehippo
blog.
Download the latest version.
As you can see here, we downloaded the VirtualBox installer and we're going to we're just going to
install, uh, install the installer.
So let's actually.org site.
Try this.
Instead of using Filehippo, we can also use the SourceForge.
Okay.
As you can see, we have a softpedia.
Yes, we can download from this.
This is actually trusted website.
And we have our show.
Is it fixed yet?
Yes.
So let's get started with downloading the virtual VMware and then continue with VirtualBox.
Here, click on the download and as you can see, VMware Workstation player, you can install this VMware
Workstation player in Linux and Windows.
As you can see, the latest version of VMware has only the 64 bit versions.
So if you have the 32 bit uh, desktop or laptop uh device, uh, so you're gonna, you need to install
the 32 bit.
So since, um, you need to install the older versions of it.
So download, click on download.
Now I'm going to, I'm using Windows and click on download now.
And as you can see, it's, uh, for the today it's.
And last version of it is 577MB.
So let's see.
No, we are having trouble for reaching VirtualBox website.
The reason of it.
Here we are installing VMware player now.
And as you can see, the virtual box website is loaded as well.
The virtual box actually are open source and that's why it has like you can install on Mac OS, Windows,
Linux, Solaris and other operating systems.
You can also install a Aerarium or M64 and click on Windows hosts.
And as you can see here, the VirtualBox has a smaller size compared to VMware player.
And yeah, it's uh, two of them is installing and let's wait and.
Complete the installation now.
Okay, so our VirtualBox is installed and let's open this and see the installation process of VirtualBox
since we are not going to use the VirtualBox uh, anyway anywhere.
So I'm going to just show how to install the VirtualBox.
If you want to use it, click on next.
And as you can see there's an you you you need to open the and select the modules to install.
So just leave it as default.
Click and click.
Yes.
So as you can as you can see, missing the dependencies.
Installing worker is python bindings requires Python core package.
So let's install, uh, whatever.
And as you can see, it's installing now.
And let's also try installing VMware player.
So I'm actually on the virtual machine now.
This, this operating system itself is virtual machine as you can see here.
But I don't think VMware is going to install on the virtual machine.
But let's check.
Here.
Yeah.
Finish.
As you can see, the virtual box is installed without a problem.
And let's open the virtual box here.
As you can see with this, you can create the.
Added the virtual machine files.
If you have downloaded one from the Linux official website, you can create a new from this.
And here let's install the.
VMware.
You can also install the enchant keyboard driver, but no.
Yeah.
Do not join and do not check the product updates on the startup next.
Yes.
Add the icons to the desktop.
Yes.
Install.
So let's go to Oracle virtualbox here.
So with this new keyword, you can enter the virtual name.
Virtual machine name folder that you're going to save the virtual machine files in it and the ISO image
which and the operating system types after selecting the ISO image.
So that's a good thing about the VMware is whatever the ISO image you selecting the VMware will choose
system automatically for you.
So I think the VMware is better virtual machine application than virtual box, but you can select your
choice and use whichever is good for you.
And as you can see here, we use VMware Workstation player for free for non-commercial use since we
are not going to use the VMware for non-commercial use, we're going to click on that and click on continue
and click on Finish.
And as you can see here, our workstation player 17, the last version of VMware is opened with this
actually in next lecture we're going to install the needed Metasploitable Kali Linux on it.
So I'm just I'm not going to show it in this lecture, but I wanted to show it how the VirtualBox interfaces
looks and how to set that.
So in the next lecture we're going to install the operating system and virtual machines in VMware.
So I'm waiting you in the next lecture.
