This option is not available by default, the OS X Unlocker we ran earlier has exposed this option. The important option here is Version which is on the Options tab.

You can keep the default resources if you prefer or bump them up, I personally bumped them up to 8 GB and 2 vCPU.

Either by right clicking on the Mac OS X 10.9 object on the left side panel or via the tabbed window.

Select the Mac OS X 10.9.vmx file and select Open.

Run VMware Workstation or VMware Player and select Open a Virtual Machine.

Note: if something goes wrong or you’d like to restore the original files for your VMware application you can run win-uninstall.cmd.

Browse to the folder where you extracted OS X Unlocker and Run the following files As Administrator ( win-install.cmd and win-update-tools.cmd).

It does this modifying some core VMware system files. OS X Unlocker essentially patches the installed VMware product so Mac OS X can be installed.

Extract the contents of OS X Unlocker onto your computer.

Download the latest OS X Unlocker, at the time of writing it is version 2.0.8.

Confirm VMware Workstation or VMware Player is installed correctly, and close the program.

Install VMware Workstation or VMware Player, I chose the Workstation route since I already had it installed.

This rar file contains VMware prepped OS X files (vmx, vmdk) for use with VMware products. 6 GB), within this file is a file called Yosemite 10.10 Retail VMware.rar, this needs to be extracted to a location of your choice, preferably onto a SSD.

It does a good job at showing the basic steps, however it doesn’t explain much along the way, I figured it would be good to break this down and explain it.

I raked over some sites that stated it was not possible, I found that rather funny I mean how is it not possible doesn’t Mac run on Intel hardware nowadays anyhow? Then I stumbled on this video. It had been an interest of mine recently to run Mac OS X on my powerhouse PC at home, but I wanted it to run as virtual machine. Whether I like to admit it or not they do make a highly polished quality product. I’ve never been a Mac fan, but I do have to say that our family does have several Apple products in our home, 2 iPads and an iPhone… for the kids and my wife.
