如果您使用Mac或 iPhone，很难选择不同的浏览器而不是Safari。它速度极快，使用最少的资源，并尊重用户隐私。但是，如果您还使用 PC，您将无法在Windows(Windows)上安装 Apple 的旗舰浏览器，因为这家总部位于库比蒂诺的科技巨头并未为Windows PC开发Safari 。当您的设备包含跨平台产品时，这是一个主要问题。
您可以做的是在Windows 10或 11 上安装旧版本的(Windows 10)Safari，但由于兼容性和安全相关问题，我们强烈建议您不要这样做。最好和最安全的选择是通过Windows(Windows)版 iCloud 将您的浏览数据从Safari同步到PC 上的Chrome或Edge。在您的 PC 上设置 macOS 并以这种方式使用Safari是另一个可行的选择。
在您的 Windows(Your Windows) PC上下载并安装 Safari(Install Safari)
Apple于 2012 年停止了Safari for Windows的开发。但是，浏览器的最终版本 ( Safari v.5.1.7) 可在 Internet 上免费获得，因此您可以快速下载并将其安装在Windows 10 或 11 PC 上。问题？它非常缓慢且过时，与大多数 Web 应用程序缺乏兼容性，并且存在安全风险。您也无法同步浏览数据，因此如果您想访问书签和密码，这不是一个解决方案。
无论如何，以下步骤将引导您在 Windows 10/11 PC 上下载和安装Safari 。但除非您只是想感受一下Safari近十年前的样子，否则我们建议您远离它。
1.从Uptodown、Filehippo或TechSpot等软件下载门户下载(TechSpot)Safari安装程序。它的重量为 36.7MB。不幸的是，Apple不再支持Windows版(Windows)Safari，因此您无法从官方来源获得它。
2. 双击下载的SafariSetup可执行文件。
3.在 Safari 设置的欢迎(Welcome)屏幕上选择下一步。(Next)
4. 接受许可协议并选择下一步(Next)。
5. 指定是否要将Safari添加为桌面快捷方式。此外，请确定您是否喜欢将其作为计算机上的默认浏览器（我们建议您不要选择此选项）。选择下一步(Next)继续。
6. 选择一个安装目录（或保留默认文件夹路径）并选择Install。
7. 等待Safari安装程序完成在您的计算机上安装Safari 。然后，选择完成(Finish)。
安装Safari后，您可以选择通过双击桌面上的Safari图标来打开它。或者，您可以通过在开始(Start)菜单的程序列表中 选择Safari来打开它。(Safari)
尽管已经有将近十年的历史，但Windows版(Windows)Safari看起来并不过分。在顶部，您有熟悉的URL栏（但不能使用它来执行搜索）、下方的书签(Bookmarks)条和左角的专用搜索栏。(Search)默认情况下，新标签会以缩略图格式显示经常访问的网站——您可以使用热门(Top)网站(Sites)和历史(History)标签来切换它们和您的浏览历史。
选择屏幕右上角的齿轮形图标会显示Safari菜单，您可以在其中选择自定义工具栏、访问浏览历史记录、启动隐私浏览窗口等。
选择首选项(Preferences)会打开首选项(Preferences)窗格，其中提供了修改主页、选择默认搜索引擎、调整隐私设置、管理扩展（尽管不存在扩展支持）等选项。
浏览器不允许使用Apple ID登录。这使得您无法从 iPhone 或Mac同步您的浏览数据。即使该功能以前存在，Apple也可能会阻止您现在登录。
在我们对Windows的(Windows)Safari测试期间，浏览器开始显示其年龄。大多数网站都需要很长时间才能加载，而网络应用程序（例如YouTube和谷歌地图(Google Maps)）只是失败或提示我们切换到兼容的浏览器。除了基本的网页浏览外，它几乎没有用。
(Safari)Windows版 Safari近十年也没有收到安全更新，因此我们建议您不要尝试将其用于任何敏感活动，例如银行或购物。
(Sync Safari Browsing Data)通过 iCloud for Windows同步 Safari 浏览数据
如果您的设备由 PC 和 iPhone 或Mac组成，您可以通过安装 iCloud for Windows将(Windows)Safari中的密码和书签与Google Chrome同步，反之亦然。这是在每个平台上访问您的浏览数据的最方便的方法。
iCloud for Windows还为(Windows)Microsoft Edge提供密码同步，为Mozilla Firefox提供书签同步。但是，只有Chrome支持两者。
如果您的 PC 上没有Windows版 iCloud ，您可以通过Microsoft Store或Apple 网站(Apple website)获取。如果您已经拥有它，请确保将其至少升级到 12.5 或更高版本（您可以通过 Microsoft Store 的下载(Downloads)和更新屏幕或运行Apple 软件更新(Apple Software Update)小程序来执行此操作）。
启动并运行Windows(Windows)版 iCloud ，打开 iCloud 应用程序并选中密码(Passwords)和书签(Bookmarks)旁边的框。如果需要，您还可以激活其他 iCloud 服务，例如照片(Photos)和云端硬盘。
通过在Google Chrome(Google Chrome)或Microsoft Edge上安装 iCloud 密码来遵循这一点。前者可让您将密码插入并保存到 iCloud 钥匙串(insert and save passwords to the iCloud Keychain)。您还可以使用 iCloud Passwords 应用程序(use the iCloud Passwords app)（与 iCloud for Windows一起自动安装）来管理您在Windows中的密码。另一方面，iCloud书签(Bookmarks)扩展在Chrome/Firefox和Safari之间同步密码。

(Run Safari)通过 macOS虚拟(Virtual)机运行 Safari
如果您想在您的 PC 上使用最新版本的Safari（可能是为了测试功能或扩展），您可以做到这一点的唯一方法是通过虚拟化软件运行 macOS。但是，手续并不方便。对于初学者来说，大多数 VM 软件本身并不支持 Mac 的操作系统，因此安装通常依赖于依赖附加软件的变通方法。此外，它需要大量可用磁盘空间并占用系统资源，更不用说虚拟机客户机与主机操作系统相比通常运行缓慢。
如果您仍想继续安装 macOS，最简单的方法是按照GitHub 上此(GitHub)macOS Virtualbox项目中的说明进行操作。它允许您通过Bash(Bash)脚本将 macOS Catalina安装为虚拟机。我们将其浓缩为以下步骤：
1.在您的 PC 上下载并安装Oracle VM VirtualBox （它是免费的）。(Oracle VM VirtualBox)
2. 下载安装Cygwin，有以下依赖（安装时可以选择）。
- 重击(bash)
- 核心工具(coreutils)
- 压缩包(gzip)
- 解压(unzip)
- wget
- xxd
- dmg2img
3. 从 GitHub 下载macos-guest-virtualbox.sh bash 脚本。
4. 打开Cygwin 终端(Cygwin Terminal)。然后，拖放 bash 脚本并按Enter。
5. 按照屏幕上的说明将 macOS 设置为 PC 上的虚拟机。
在设置过程之后，您可以通过选择Mac 程序坞上的(Dock)Safari图标来打开和使用Safari。了解如何在 Mac 上使用和自定义 Safari(using and customizing Safari on the Mac)。但是，在您这样做之前，最好更新 macOS 和Safari。为此，请打开Apple菜单并选择System Preferences > Software Update > Update Now。
iCloud for Windows是最方便的
尽管可以在 Windows 10/11 计算机上下载和安装Safari，但我们建议您远离它。仅安全风险就使其不切实际，并且由于兼容性问题，无论如何您都不能将其用于任何严重的网络浏览。
由于您想要安装Safari的最可能原因涉及同步您的密码和书签，因此使用Windows版 iCloud是唯一可行的选择。但是，如果您确实有时间并且只想尝试最新版本的Safari，那么您最好的选择是将 macOS 设置为您 PC 上的虚拟机。
Safari for Windows 10: How To Get and Install It
If you use a Mac or an iPhone, it’s hard to pick a dіfferent browser over Safari. It’s incredibly fast, uses minimal resources, and respects user privacy. But if уou also use а PC, yоu won’t have the luxury of installing Apple’s flagship browѕer on Windows since the Cupertino-based tech giant does not develop Safari for the Windows PC. That’s a majоr issue when your gear consists of cross-platform prodυcts.
What you can do is install an older version of Safari on Windows 10 or 11, although we highly advise against that due to compatibility and security-related issues. The best and safest option is to sync your browsing data from Safari to Chrome or Edge on your PC via iCloud for Windows. Setting up macOS on your PC and using Safari that way is another feasible option.
Download and Install Safari on Your Windows PC
Apple halted the development of Safari for Windows in 2012. However, the final version of the browser (Safari v.5.1.7) is freely available on the internet, so you can quickly download and install it on your Windows 10 or 11 PC. The problem? It’s terribly slow and dated, lacks compatibility with most web apps, and poses security risks. You also can’t sync your browsing data, so it’s not a solution if you want to access bookmarks and passwords.
Regardless, the steps below will walk you through downloading and installing Safari on your Windows 10/11 PC. But unless you just want to have a feel of how Safari looked almost a decade earlier, we recommend you stay away from it.
1. Download the Safari installer from a software download portal such as Uptodown, Filehippo, or TechSpot. It weighs in at 36.7MB. Unfortunately, Apple no longer supports Safari for Windows, so you can’t get it from an official source.
2. Double-click the downloaded SafariSetup executable file.
3. Select Next on the Safari Setup’s Welcome screen.
4. Accept the license agreement and select Next.
5. Specify if you want to add Safari as a desktop shortcut or not. Also, decide if you prefer it as the default browser on your computer (we recommend you don’t select this option). Select Next to continue.
6. Pick an install directory (or leave the default folder path) and select Install.
7. Wait for the Safari installer to finish installing Safari on your computer. Then, select Finish.
After installing Safari, you can choose to open it by double-clicking the Safari icon on the desktop. Or, you can open it by selecting Safari on the Start menu’s programs list.
Despite being almost ten years old, Safari for Windows doesn’t look too out of place. To the top, you have the familiar URL bar (you can’t use it to perform searches, however), a Bookmarks strip underneath, and a dedicated Search bar on the left corner. By default, new tabs display frequently visiting sites in thumbnail format—you can use the Top Sites and History tabs to switch them and your browsing history.
Selecting the cog-shaped icon at the right corner of the screen reveals the Safari menu, where you can choose to customize the toolbar, access your browsing history, launch a private browsing window, and so on.
Selecting Preferences opens the Preferences pane, which provides options to modify the homepage, pick a default search engine, adjust privacy settings, manage extensions (although extensions support is non-existent), etc.
What the browser does not allow is to sign in with an Apple ID. That makes it impossible to sync your browsing data from an iPhone or Mac. Even if the functionality were present previously, Apple probably would’ve stopped you from signing in to it by now.
During our Safari tests on Windows, the browser started showing its age. Most websites took a long time to load, while web apps (such as YouTube and Google Maps) simply failed or prompted us to switch to a compatible browser. Other than for basic web browsing, it was practically useless.
Safari for Windows also hasn’t received security updates in almost a decade, so we recommend that you don’t attempt to use it for any sensitive activities such as banking or shopping.
Sync Safari Browsing Data via iCloud for Windows
If your gear consists of a PC and iPhone or Mac, you can sync your passwords and bookmarks from Safari with Google Chrome and vice-versa by installing iCloud for Windows. That’s the most convenient method for accessing your browsing data on each platform.
iCloud for Windows also offers password syncing for Microsoft Edge and bookmarks syncing for Mozilla Firefox. However, only Chrome receives support for both.
If you don’t have iCloud for Windows on your PC, you can get it via the Microsoft Store or the Apple website. If you already have it, make sure to upgrade it to at least version 12.5 or later (you can do that via the Microsoft Store’s Downloads and updates screen or by running the Apple Software Update applet).
With iCloud for Windows up and running, open the iCloud app and check the boxes next to Passwords and Bookmarks. You can also activate additional iCloud services such as Photos and Drive if you want.
Follow that by installing the iCloud Passwords on Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge. The former lets you insert and save passwords to the iCloud Keychain. You can also use the iCloud Passwords app (which installs automatically alongside iCloud for Windows) to manage your passwords in Windows. On the other hand, the iCloud Bookmarks extension syncs passwords between Chrome/Firefox and Safari.

Run Safari via a macOS Virtual Machine
If you want to use the most recent version of Safari on your PC (perhaps to test a feature or extension), the only way you can do that is by running macOS via virtualization software. However, the procedure is not convenient. For starters, Mac’s operating system is not natively supported by most VM software, so installation generally relies on workarounds relying on additional software. Also, it requires lots of free disk space and uses up system resources, not to mention that virtual machine guests generally run sluggishly compared to the host operating system.
If you still want to go ahead and install macOS, the easiest way to do that is by following the instructions within this macOS Virtualbox project on GitHub. It lets you install macOS Catalina as a virtual machine via a Bash script. We’ve condensed it into the following steps:
1. Download and install Oracle VM VirtualBox on your PC (it’s free).
2. Download and install Cygwin with the following dependencies (you can select them during installation).
- bash
- coreutils
- gzip
- unzip
- wget
- xxd
- dmg2img
3. Download the macos-guest-virtualbox.sh bash script from GitHub.
4. Open the Cygwin Terminal. Then, drag and drop the bash script and press Enter.
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up macOS as a virtual machine on your PC.
After the setup procedure, you can open and use Safari by selecting the Safari icon on the Mac’s Dock. Learn about using and customizing Safari on the Mac. Before you do that, however, it’s a good idea to update macOS and Safari. To do that, open the Apple menu and select System Preferences > Software Update > Update Now.
iCloud for Windows Is the Most Convenient
Although it’s possible to download and install Safari on your Windows 10/11 computer, we recommend you stray away from it. The security risks alone make it impractical, and it’s not like you can use it for any serious web browsing anyway due to compatibility issues.
Since the most likely reason you would want to install Safari involves syncing your passwords and bookmarks, using iCloud for Windows is the only viable alternative. But if you do have the time and just want to try out the latest version of Safari, your best option is to set up macOS as a virtual machine on your PC.
