Can I use VMare Workstation 7 instead of Windows 8.1

I am required to have Windows 8.1 Pro or enterprise on my laptop for a review that I prepare, and my laptop running Windows 7. I won't buy another laptop which runs on Windows Pro 8.1 soon. I am afraid problems related to starting secure if I bought the 8.1 Windows and installed on Windows 7. A friend told me to download the VMware Workstation instead of buy the Win 8.1. Will this work?

Please, what can I do?

Hello

For the purposes of evaluation that you do not need to buy Windows or VMware Workstation, you can get the trial versions of the software instead, and in this particular case, yes you can do.

Note, however, that the evaluation software is limited in time.

Try Windows 8.1 company | TechNet Evaluation Center

and

Try VMware Workstation, run Linux and Windows in a Virtual Machine. United States

If you want to continue using the software after the end of the evaluation period, you must purchase a license.

Success with your review.

    The issue here is not one of which version of Windows you are using.
    It is one of what you have installed applications.
     
    The answer is Yes, if you have WordPerfect (or some compatible)
    program) installed on Windows Vista. The answer is no, if you do not.

  • How can I use my legal license instead of the cracked version of Windows 7

    Windows 7 Cracked Version

    I use windows 7 cracked version of geniune microsoft but I bought the license for my windows and I don't want to use cracked version more, how can I use my legal license key?

    It cannot be that simple. If windows is cracked with the loading of a hacker program, the charger must be removed.

    Make sure that the product keys match the edition of windows.
    Personally, I would install a legitimate copy of windows. You never know what is contained in a pirated version.
