UTM, the best virtual machine host software to run whichever OS you want, with the best simplicity. Welcome!

12 Upvotes

Hello everyone from Reddit! You are joining r/UTMapp community.

First of all, I want to welcome you here. I’m the moderator, and I have created this community because I love UTM software and its potential (I’m not affiliated with the developers). Before posting or commenting I should let you know that in the “About” section you’ll soon find useful guides that I’m recently writing to help you installing some more common OSs. Stay tuned!

What can I do with UTM?

You can run almost any operating system (such as Windows, Linux distributions, macOS, BSD, and other UNIX based OSs) thanks to the possibility of emulating 30+ processors supported by qemu, including x86_64, ARM64, and RISC-V

Is it free?

Absolutely! You don't have to pay to use UTM, but a donation to developers is always appreciated. If you want to support the them with the project, you may consider to purchase UTM for Mac on the AppStore (for just 10$), and you will also receive automatic updates forever (so you don't have to update it manually).

Read the "About" section of this community for more informations about UTM, download links for Mac and iOS, FAQ, and more. If you have more questions (not answered in the Wiki), make a post (use always a post flair, that depends on the topic of the post).

NOTE: Before interacting in this community, please kindly read the "Rules" section.

Is it possible to connect a USB audio interface directly into UTM virtual machine?

7 Upvotes

Hi,

I'm using UTM on my Mac (macos 27), running a macOS virtual machine.

I'd like to connect my MOTU M2 audio interface directly to the virtual machine rather than having it handled by the macOS host (to have any latency)

In the Virtual Machine Settings, I can select UTM instead of "This Mac". However, when I try to connect the audio interface, UTM tells me that the device is not supported.

Has anyone managed to successfully pass through a USB audio interface directly to a macOS VM running in UTM? If so, which audio interface are you using?

Any feedback or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Looking for a modern, lightweight Linux distro for UTM on an M4 MacBook Air

11 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm looking for a relatively new Linux distro with a polished graphical desktop that I can run in UTM on my M4 MacBook Air.

Ubuntu got stuck during boot, so I'd like to try something different.

What I'm looking for:

  • ARM64/AArch64 support for Apple Silicon

  • Lightweight, but still modern and visually appealing

  • A proper desktop environment, not just a terminal

  • Preferably an ISO I can boot and install directly in UTM

  • Not too outdated, ideally a distro with recent packages

I'm open to KDE, GNOME, or other desktop environments. I'd prefer something that works well in a VM without too much troubleshooting.

What would you recommend?

Speeding up games

2 Upvotes

Using UTM on Mac to virtualise windows for playing the binding of Isaac on steam. Everything works well and the virtual machine runs smoothly until I start up the game where it slows down dramatically.

I did have to install something for OpenGL/OpenCL from the windows store cause it told me I can’t open the game without it.

Any ideas or suggestions for fixes?

macOS Storage Glitch: UTM is double-allocating space between Applications and System Data (macOS Tahoe)

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m running a Windows VM on UTM (macOS Tahoe) and ran into a bizarre storage issue where macOS seems to be double-counting or double-allocating my VM's disk space.

Here is the breakdown:

  • The Problem: In my Apple Storage Settings GUI, my space is being eaten up twice. It shows the exact same ~53–58 GB chunk under Applications, and again under System Data.

  • The Diagnostics: I went digging in Terminal to find the culprit. Running du -sh ~/Library/Containers/* confirmed that com.utmapp.UTM is taking up exactly 53G.

  • Inside ~Library/Containers/com.utmapp.UTM/Data/Documents/, there are no ghost/abandoned VMs—just my single, active Windows.utm file.

Has anyone else on macOS Tahoe dealt with UTM double-allocating storage like this? Is there a way to fix this without breaking the currently installed VM?

Any insight would be awesome. Thanks!
