From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It might be possible to trick the app's activation function. But before you can do that, you'd have to understand how it is checking for virtualization, so that you know what aspect of the VM's behavior to tweak.
Someone on Lemmy might be able to help you with that, if they knew what app you were trying to use...
Im trying to install solidworks 2016 and Im getting same error like the one on the next link:
https://serverfault.com/questions/727347/solidworks-activation-license-mode-is-not-supported-in-this-virtual-environment
Everything I find seems like possible at first, but then too dificult to understand and possibly outdated
I see several torrents for solidworks 2016 on 1337x
Tbh I see only one, but maybe im using wrong instance. Ill look again, it would be much easier if I find one that doesnt need activation.
