From Manjaro

Install virt-manager, qemu and all dependencies


From terminal:

sudo pacman -S --needed virt-manager qemu-desktop libvirt edk2-ovmf dnsmasq iptables-nft

For TPM support:

sudo pacman -S --asdeps swtpm

Enable and start service

sudo systemctl enable libvirtd.service
sudo systemctl start libvirtd.service

Add user to libvirt group to use the system-level virtual machines (qemu:///system)

sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $USER
Note
  1. You don't need this step to run system-level virtual machines. However, virt-manager will prompt for sudoer's password when launch if the user is not in the libvirt group
  2. You can also create user-level virtual machines (qemu:///session) and use without sudoer's privelige. However, some features such as VirtioFS file sharing may be unavailable in qemu:///session
