In XP such a situation often occurs, when your app is not run on the new release of system from Microsoft, but in Windows XP it feels free and accessible, so the only way to run it – is to virtually emulate XP on your current machine. As a result, you will be able to work with it as with your current active OS, not worrying about the absence of support of your archaic program apps by Windows 10 or 7.

Using VirtualBox, you may emulate Linux, Unix, Solaris, FreeBSD, Mac OS X or any system from Windows family. With its assistance you can run any type of operational system, old or new, on your current machine without addressing to configuring the local hard disk drive and mapping the available letters to non-associated logical devices. VirtualBox is a free open-source product with tons of handy and in time features and possibilities. In this article I’m going to tell about how to set up and use VirtualBox for Windows XP for free, and how to download it and adopt to the real working environment. Lots of useful functions, support of USB-devices and Ethernet and Wi-Fi networks, drag’n’drop mechanism, optical drives and handlers – this is far from entire list of supported by the tool functions and abilities. Among the variety of the virtual machines on the software market (Virtual PC, VMWare) the best solution is Oracle VM VirtualBox. For emulating external software in a native environment there is nothing better than virtual machine.
