Mac os extended format on Windows

kristofk

I am striving to install macOS Sierra on a partition of my hard drive on my PC, however, I need to format that partition to "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". Is there a tool for that? I think it is possible to format one partition of a hard drive into NTFS and the other into Mac OS..., but correct me if I'm wrong.

Well... why don't you try a VMware-only customed version of Sierra and run it on VMware?

VMware Workstation Player is free.

I think you do it when installing the OS, the installing thing has a formatting tool.

Ok but the installer isn't recognising any of my drives so that is why I was thinking this, I may need to look into it more.

I know I tried but the screen resolution never works for me on VMWare. So I'm trying a dual boot machine now.

Wait, why VMware? Might as well go with VirtualBox at that point.

VirtualBox just literally sucks. I had numerous bad experiences with VB and after those series of unfortuante events, I only use VMware.

What about the one they is built into Windows 10 Pro? I heard that the pro version has a built in virtualizer.

It is called 'Hyper-V', and it was on Windows since Server 2008(or Windows 8 Pro lineup).

Well... performance and compatibility is not bad. However still VMware is the best.
