AFAIK, these types of VMs have been offered for many years. They used to be for IE compatibility, but they were full Windows installs. I know they existed as far back as 2013 and maybe even earlier.
- Andrex 3y agoI remember those. I was more of a noob back then so instead of all the fiddling I often just used Browsershots.
- adastra22 3y agoDefinitely earlier. I used these in 2011 while employed by a major government contractor. We had a stupid in-house system for paperwork submission that only worked on IE6 running on Windows XP. For my team I made an VirtualBox image based on this that could run on our customer-issued MacBook devices. Anytime we needed to submit expenses, just load the WinXP virtual machine.
- ErneX 3y agoTrue, I used them for IE debugging.
- hiyer 3y agoYes. You also get Vagrant images for them [1] which are quite convenient to use. 1. https://app.vagrantup.com/gusztavvargadr/boxes/windows-11 https://app.vagrantup.com/gusztavvargadr/boxes/windows-11
