Install Logic Pro for Windows PC.

As we have mentioned, you cannot install the app directly on your PC. For that you need to take the route of a virtual machine. A virtualization software will enable you to run Mac OS X, virtually on your Windows PC. Here is what you need to do:

1. For the first step download a macOS HighSierra file. You will have to run this later on your virtualization software.
2. After the download, search for the file in your downloads folder. Upon finding it extract the .rar file. You will need WinRar to be installed.

Downloading Virtualization Software

1. The next step will be to download a virtualization software. There are many such software available like VirtualBox and Virtual Machine. Our pick would be Virtual Box as it is easier to tackle and an efficient software.
2. Before you download the software, head to the PC BIOS. Over here you need to enable Virtualization first.
3. You can then head over to the official site of VirtualBox to download it.
4. Follow the steps in the setup file to install the software in your PC.
5. After the installation, you will have to set up the Virtual Machine on your Windows PC.

Setting up Virtual Machine

1. So open VirtualBOX, click on the ‘Machine' option and then the ‘New' option. Here you will have to enter the name of the machine and select the Mac version.
2. After which select the RAM size of your PC. You need to have at least 4GB of RAM size for the software to run without any glitch.
3. You will also find a Hard Disk option. Select the ‘Use an Existing Hard Disk file'. Now go ahead and click o the ‘Add' option and choose the extracted macOS HighSierra file.
4. Click on ‘Choose' and then ‘Create'. Your Virtual Machine is now set up but is not quite ready to use just yet. You need to edit the settings of Mac OS first.

Mac OS setup

1. Go to the settings tab in the Virtual Machine that you created. First click on the ‘System Settings' and then on ‘Motherboard' tab and uncheck ‘Floppy' and ‘Network' options.
2. Click on ‘Processor' next. Here select CPU as half of your machine's processor.
3. After this go the ‘Screen' tab in ‘Display' settings and set the Video Memory as 128 MB. Click on OK to ensure that the changes have been saved.
4. After that is taken care of, find the CMD tool from start menu and choose ‘Run as Administrator'.
5. Now replace the 'Machine Name' in the Virtual Machine and enter the following code.
