If you’re willing to hands-on macOS Mojave and give it a try before you really install on your Mac, here’s how to do that with a quick set up Mojave on a virtual machine. Here is How to Install macOS Mojave on Parallels Desktop.

This is a clever idea that if for some reasons you might not want to install on your actual computer. More importantly, there are tons of reasons why you would not install this on your working computer. One of the reasons might be conflicting with software or program or not getting installed or perhaps maybe not working with other different things like network, sound, and other. In this case, you might want to install it aside from your original OS.

So, what’s better idea than installing on a virtual machine aside from your operating system. This is probably a mature idea to get around with installing Mojave on a virtual machine (VM) before you actually go through it on your real Mac. The best part is, whether you get failed with installation or not properly work with things, you’ll always have the option to rollback to re-installation or deleting the virtual machine without affecting your OS. Parallels make it handy and quick with installing on a virtual machine that is entirely painless without hassle. So, let’s get started.

What you’ll need

To begin, here are a few things you’ll need to download.

  • macOS Mojave Installer file: In order to install and run macOS Mojave as a virtual machine, you’ll need to download macOS Mojave image installer image file from App Store. The downloading may take some while (which is over 6 gig) mostly depends on your internet connection.

Head to App Store on your Mac, and search for macOS Mojave, you’ll get a bunch of results, look for the original one and click on Get.

  • Parallels Desktop 14 for Mac: The Parallels makes it surprisingly easy and straightforward that I have used for over years now. The worse thing is, you’ll need to do subscription which is not free. For the pricing, check out the offical website and you’ll find the pricing there.

The installation part is pretty easy, once you’ve downloaded the setup, run it and you’ll have the install option, double click on it and it won’t ask you another question, instead it will open the main window.

    The answer to my question is yes Mojave can be installed with parallels lite! 😉 so no cost . and there is no need to sign in, just close that window and select file > new. Thanks for the inspiration Ali Nazari
