How do you make a virtual box available to all users

Post by danny91693 »

Hello everyone,

My parents just recently bought a new iMac as our "family" computer, which means we have multiple accounts on it. There is a couple of pieces of software we still use on a regular basis that only works in Windows, so I was going to make a virtual box so we could run them. My question is, though I have done this several time on single account computers, how do I make one virtual machine available on multiple accounts. I don't want to waste hard drive space making a virtual box for every account. Thanks much for any help you can give me! :) (And I don't want to use bootcamp)
