Can I take my Windows VM and install on a real PC?

[Jigs Gaton]

Hi all, I am thinking of getting a Surface Pro or something like that, and I am wondering if I can somehow take my existing Windows 10 VM that I use on all of my Macs and somehow transport / install that on a new PC. I am looking for a bullet-proof procedure to get this task done, once I purchase a new PC. I was thinking that Acronis Backup might do the trick, but I have never tried. Thx!

Hi Jigs Gaton,
You can try using Acronis, Carbonite or any other to backup Windows and restore it on the PC. To do it you need to have a working Windows (without any applications/programs) on the PC then you can restore from backup. We don't have any users tried it earlier and reported us that it was a success. Reach out to us with the results.
