    Fusion on Apple Silicon does not support or run any version of macOS in a virtual machine. I suggest using UTM if you want to run macOS Monterey or later VM on an Apple Silicon Mac.

    Thanks Technogeezer. I had not heard of UTM until now. I have several MacOS guests, being 10.6, 10.11 and 10.14.

    I have no interest in Windows guests. Frankly I am not sure why anyone would. It would be far easier to just get a Windows machine.

    Anyway, can UTM be used with Intel machines and Sonoma, please? Can it use the existing Virtual Machines of Fusion or do you have to somehow create new ones, please? Thanks
