<div>
1. EXE is running in VM or the host mode<br />
Each VM will be running its own OS, so all the exe is basically run inside the VM<br />
<br />
2. if VM, which kind or vm &nbsp;(HyperV / VMWare, etc)<br />
I recommend the free esxi4

As stated in the article referenced by the answer you accepted, DO NOT rely on the BIOS information to see if you are in a VM. It can be configured to pass the HOST information and NOT the VM info thus giving you a false belief that you are on a physical machine.

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

Microsoft Server OS

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
