Fixed a problem when uploading a virtual machine with Workstation 10.0.x to ESXi 6.0. 10.0.7 [46] 2 July 2015 Security fixes; Last version for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 on hosts; Final version to support 32-bit Windows editions on hosts; 11.0 [47] 1 December 2014
Virtual machine security is enhanced by removing graphics render from vmx and running it as a separate sandbox process. USB 3.1 Controller Support: The virtual machines virtual XHCI controller is changed from USB 3.0 to USB 3.1 to support 10 Gbit/s. Larger VMs: 32 virtual CPUs (host and guest OS must both support this number) 128 GB virtual memory
A hypervisor, also known as a virtual machine monitor (VMM) or virtualizer, is a type of computer software, firmware or hardware that creates and runs virtual machines. A computer on which a hypervisor runs one or more virtual machines is called a host machine , and each virtual machine is called a guest machine .
The QEMU maintainers merged support for providing SPICE remote desktop capabilities for all QEMU virtual machines in March 2010. The QEMU binary links to the spice-server library to provide this capability and implements the QXL paravirtualized framebuffer device to enable the guest OS to take advantage of the performance benefits the SPICE ...
Process virtual machines were a popular approach to implementing early microcomputer software, including Tiny BASIC and adventure games, from one-off implementations such as Pyramid 2000 to a general-purpose engine like Infocom's z-machine, which Graham Nelson argues is "possibly the most portable virtual machine ever created".

A virtual machine implements functionality of a (physical) computer with an operating system. The software or firmware that creates a virtual machine on the host hardware is called a hypervisor or virtual machine monitor. [2] Software executed on these virtual machines is separated from the underlying hardware resources.
[8] [9] For some guest operating systems, a "Guest Additions" package of device drivers and system applications is available, [10] [11] which typically improves performance, especially that of graphics, and allows changing the resolution of the guest OS automatically when the window of the virtual machine on the host OS is resized.
