Is it possible to emulate a Windows desktop on CrossOver?

I have a Mac, and I was wondering whether crossover could emulate an entire windows 10 desktop, along with applications installed.

^^^similar to what parallels desktop does

Crossover is not a VM or Emulator, essentially translates Windows commands/code to run on Mac & Linux. You'd have to use UTM/Parallels or other such software if you wanted a virtual machine.

Please Note: This Forum is for non-application specific questions relating to installation/configuration of CrossOver. All application-specific posts to this Forum will be moved to their appropriate Compatibility Center Forum.
