How to use Windows on Mac for free (IE, Edge only)

I’ll introduce how to use Windows on Mac for free.

As a prerequisite, using it for purposes other than testing Internet Explorer or Microsoft Edge browsers would be a license violation, so you must not install other software.

Installing VirtualBox

First, install the free virtualization software VirtualBox.

Downloads – Oracle VM VirtualBox

Installing with ievms

Next, install IE using ievms from Terminal

xdissent/ievms · GitHub

Installing all versions

To install all versions of IE and Edge, just run the following command:

curl -s https://raw.github.com/xdissent/ievms/master/ievms.sh | bash

Installing only specific versions

For example, if you want to install only IE11 and EDGE, run a command like this:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xdissent/ievms/master/ievms.sh | env IEVMS_VERSIONS="11 EDGE" bash

Windows initial login password

The login password is Password1 (P is uppercase).

Summary - Thanks to ievms

Thanks to ievms, it’s helpful that IE browser checks can be completed with just a Mac.
