Install Windows 11 on Virt-Manager

 Virt-Manager will have been installed in base install.  But to enable it (make sure SVM, or whatever virtualization is called in your BIOS is enabled). From https://computingforgeeks.com/install-kvm-qemu-virt-manager-arch-manjar/ sudo pacman -S qemu-full virt-manager virt-viewer dnsmasq vde2 bridge-utils openbsd-netcat dmidecode ip tables libguestfs edk2-ovmf swtpm Then enable and start libritd.service sudo systemctl enable libvirtd.service sudo systemctl start libvirtd.service sudo micro /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf Set the UNIX domain socket group ownership to libvirt, (around line 85 ) unix_sock_group = "libvirt" Set the UNIX socket permissions for the R/W socket (around line 102 ) unix_sock_rw_perms = "0770" Add your user account to libvirt group.   sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $(whoami) newgrp libvirt Restart libvirt daemon. sudo systemctl restart libvirtd.service Section below is quoted directly from https://linustechtips.com/topic/1379063-windows-11-in-virt-mana...
