## Prerequisites:
- Windows 11 or any version of Windows that supports Linux GUI Apps. I don't know if Windows 10 does or not.
- Virtualization capabilities
- 8GB of RAM or more
## Step 1 (Installing WSL2)
Install WSL2. If you have WSL2 already, you can skip this
Open Powershell as an administrator and run this command
```
wsl --install
```
It will prompt a reboot, reboot and let it install Ubuntu. One that is done, make a username and password. It does not have to be the same as the system.
## Step 2 (Getting the files)
Open a new Ubuntu terminal window, and run this command, replacing the WINDOWS_USER_NAME with the your Windows username, not the Linux one.
```
cd /mnt/c/users/WINDOWS_USER_NAME/Documents
```
Then run
```
sudo apt install git-all -y
```
Now clone the repository
```
git clone https://github.com/notAperson535/OneClick-macOS-Simple-KVM.git
```
Now cd into the newly created folder
```
cd OneClick-macOS-Simple-KVM
```
## Step 3 (installing qemu and virtualization capabilities)
Run the included windows installer
```
./windows-install.sh
```
Once you get to the menu (looks like this)

Go to Virtualization and make sure your system processor type is selected, mine is Intel

Then keep clicking exit, and save the configuration
Once when you see the nano windows pop up, use the arrow keys to navigate to the bottom and paste this command
```
export DISPLAY=$(cat /etc/resolv.conf | grep nameserver | awk '{print $2; exit;}'):0.0
```
Now do ctrl+x, and hit enter twice
Now run these commands to make sure virtualization works
```
kvm-ok
cat /sys/module/kvm_intel/parameters/nested
```
If the first command returns `KVM acceleration can be used` and the second command returns `Y`, then you are good to go
now cd into the OneClick-macOS-Simple-KVM directory, replacing the WINDOWS_USER_NAME with the your Windows username, not the Linux one.
```
cd /mnt/c/users/WINDOWS_USER_NAME/Documents/OneClick-macOS-Simple-KVM
```
And run setup.sh to finish the setup and run the macOS VM!
