Yeah, if I wanted a VM, I’d be running a VM…
If this is just winapps with a different coat of paint then it’s still not gonna work for me. I haven’t managed to get several apps requiring a gpu running through WinApps properly.
- Meshmixer
- RealityCapture/RealityScan
And posting about them in the forums and discord has gotten me no help.
I guess this looks like WSL on Windows, except the other way around?
Looks like Parallels for MacOS? I’ll have to give it a go.
Has anyone tried this on bazzite? Mind sharing if it works? Are there any steps necessary to make it work?

How about just using virtualbox… Or maybe wine and stuff
Virtualbox is VMs. This is containers.
Containers are better, especially for a desktop: they are smaller, faster in every sense, and don’t permanently hog a fixed part of the resources, instead scaling dynamically, just like any other process on the host.
Nowadays you can also assign a dynamic amount of memory. I’ve only ever used this with Linux VMs on Proxmox though, but I’m pretty sure it works with Windows as well
You’re probably thinking of LXCs, which are containers not virtual machines
No I’m talking about VMs. It’s the baloon kernel driver which also works on Windows (though needs separate installation). It doesn’t work quite like containers though. The hypervisor dynamically adds/removes memory to the VM depending on total memory usage of the hypervisor.
