Am I inside a VM ? How to know?

Hello Experts

How can I identify if I am working inside a VM?
considering that I may very well be inside with administrative privilege ?

I need to be able to prove beyond any doubt that I am inside or not a remote VM.

Thank you so much !!
This solves so many problems
Specially because this is a remote customer
and their tech people did something last week
that now this VM is super slow... users cant work with our app...
thank you
