Recommended VirtualBox version
The recommended VirtualBox version is 7.0.26.
For Windows 10/11, the VirtualBox version is included with the Genymotion Desktop installer for Windows.
The VirtualBox version can also be downloaded separately from virtualbox.org.
Version cautions and references
Using VirtualBox 7.1 or higher is not recommended.
For more details, refer to the article Can I use VirtualBox 7.2 or 7.1 with Genymotion Desktop?
Mac M series and virtualization
The VirtualBox hypervisor is not available for Mac M series.
macOS and Linux hypervisor switch
QEMU on macOS and Linux is more compatible and provides better performance than VirtualBox.
QEMU is now the default hypervisor.
If VirtualBox has been used on Linux or macOS previously, switching to the QEMU hypervisor is strongly recommended if possible.
