    I’ve you’re running Linux on your system use KVM. If you’re running Windows, use Virtual box.

    Seems like HyperV is the obvious answer, but last I knew that was a Windows Pro and up feature. Virtual Box is a fine tool as an alternative.

    In my experience, there are no problems with either VirtualBox or VMware when it comes to Arch. Personally, I mainly use VirtualBox.

    If you’re not familiar with it, windows now has native support to run Linux via the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2). It can integrate pretty well into your environment as well, like pushing vscode applications to run in the Subsystem. It apparently supports gui as well although I haven’t tried setting that up myself.

    If you can try andd use Hyper-V as it is windows native (if you have home edition then it’s not something you can use because M$).

    If you want a simple hypervisor VirtualBox will do just fine and I’ve had a generally better experience with that over VMWare (that said both will do the trick).

    Lastly I should mention that you can use Qemu on windows; but I’ve never tried that myself and it might require some tinkering to get to work but it is the fastest virtualization framework I know of.
