Title: Virtual Machines. Post by: legend018 on November 23, 2017, 02:26:59 PM Do people get into setting up their wallets on Virtual Machines, (Windows or Linux for main examples)?
I'm thinking about it, but what's popping in my head is that the experience I have had with VM's hasn't always been pleasant. Now you have to make sure you save your vm, hope that the harddrive it is on doesn't die, and hope that something doesn't go awry and you get a corrupted VM and can't bring it back up. I've had VM's go wonky on me over the years. Any thoughts? Title: Re: Virtual Machines.

Things I rather not have installed on my main machine. That being said, you can easily backup the whole VM hardrive pre and post installing of new crypto software. This would be your safest bet.

The main thing is not to forget to synchronize information You can even write a script for backup on VM :P Title: Re: Virtual Machines.

If you have any problem, just look on youtube to find some tutorials.
