right, let's get into it. So to get
0:31
Virtual Box, first you need to go ahead
0:33
and open any browser and then just
0:35
search for Virtual Box. And here is the
0:39
website. It is from virtualbox.org.
0:42
Go ahead and click on it to open. And
0:45
you'll get this website. This is the
0:47
official Virtual Box website. To get it,
0:50
go ahead and click on this download
0:52
option. And under this, you have to go
0:55
ahead and choose the package that you
0:56
want to download. As you can see, we
0:58
have packages for Windows, Mac OS,
1:01
Linux, Safaris, and Safaris 11. So, I'll
1:05
go ahead and choose mine, which is
1:07
Windows host. So, if you're on Windows,
1:09
just go ahead and choose Windows. If
1:11
you're on Mac OS, go ahead and choose
1:14
according to your current operating
1:15
system. So, once I select mine, it will
1:18
go ahead and download the program on my
1:20
computer. Now, once the download is
1:22
done, you can see it is here. I'll go
1:23
ahead and open the folder under which it
1:26
has been downloaded. And mine was
1:28
downloaded under download. So I'll go
1:31
ahead and install it. And to install
1:33
this, I'll just right click on it. And
1:36
then click on run as an admin. I'll go
1:40
ahead and click on yes to install it.
1:42
And as you can see, it is preparing to
1:44
install. From here, you'll get this
1:46
window. Go ahead and click on next to
1:48
proceed. And here you have to agree to
1:51
the licensing agreement. And if you read
1:54
this, you will see all it contains. This
1:57
is a copyright of 2022. By the time I'm
1:59
doing this, it is in 2025. Go ahead and
2:02
click on accept the terms in the license
2:05
agreement. Click next. And for the rest,
2:08
just go ahead and leave the custom setup
2:11
as they are. Click next. And to
2:14
finalize, click on yes. By doing so, you
2:17
are agreeing to proceed with
2:19
installation. So again, click on yes and
2:23
choose whether you want to have maybe a
2:26
shortcut on your start menu. You can
2:28
also create a shortcut on the desktop
2:31
and also create a shortcut in the quick
2:33
access. So I'll just give this as they
2:35
are and then install from here. So this
2:40
will go ahead and install it and then
2:42
confirm by clicking on finish here. And
2:45
as you can see this is version 7.1.10
2:50
and this is as per the day of recording
2:52
this video. So I'll click on finish. And
2:55
now you can see we have our Oracle
2:58
virtual box icon here. So to launch it
3:01
go ahead and just double click on it to
3:03
launch your virtual box and start using
3:05
it. And from here, go ahead and choose
3:08
the mode that you want. Whether you want
3:09
basic mode or expert mode, go ahead and
3:13
click on it. And to be able to run your
3:16
virtual or to install your virtual OS,
3:18
just go to machine here. And from here,
3:21
click on new. And from here, go ahead
3:24
and give the name of the OS you want.
3:27
Maybe you want Ubuntu. You can now go
3:29
ahead and give it a name. And from here
3:32
go ahead and choose the folder in which
3:35
your software or your operating system
3:38
is. So by following this you'll be able
3:40
