Can I run Final Cut Pro on Windows ?

mohamedkhaled21000 · Feb 11, 2018

After some search I found out that this can't be done after Fianl Cut X was introduced by apple, but can an older version such as final cut 7 still work on pc? To add some context,I am studying editing and the program usually used in that class is final cut, I do use premiere, but I need final cut for class purposes so I wonder if it is possible to run it on PC.

Specs:
Inter I7 4790k
MSI z97 gaming 5

Looks unlikely:

You could maybe run the apple OS in a VM, and do it that way.

And that's a pretty crappy class if it demands a particular application that only runs on a particular, expensive, OS and hardware.
Prof should be concerned with the results, not in what clicks you use to get there.
There are many good alternatives on the Windows platform, both free and paid.

Final Cut will not run on Windows. You could try setting up a VM and running OS X and Final Cut there.

Or, pick up a used (inexpensive) Mac and run there.

Good luck.
