Once you have finished installing macOS you will be presented with an

set up your username and password

OPTIONAL: After you have concluded the out-of-the-box wizard, you may
want to enable the TRIM feature that the computer industry created for
SSD disks.
This feature in our macOS installation will allow QuickEmu to compact
(shrink) your macOS disk image whenever you delete files inside the
Virtual Machine.
Without this step your macOS disk image will only ever get larger and
will not shrink even when you delete lots of data inside macOS.

To enable TRIM, open the Terminal application and type the following
command followed by pressing enter to tell macos to use the TRIM command
on the hard disk when files are deleted:

You will be prompted to enter your account\[cq]s password to gain the
privilege needed.
Once you\[cq]ve entered your password and pressed enter the command will
request confirmation in the form of two questions that require you to
type y (for a \[lq]yes\[rq] response) followed by enter to confirm.
If you press enter without first typing y the system will consider that
a negative response as though you said \[lq]no\[rq]:
