Hi guys I’ve bought this WiFi adapter to use in a Kali Linux virtual machine. The device I’m using is a MacBook Pro running big sur. The installation disc does not ha e an option for big sur is there any way I can get this activated for use on the virtual machine?

Please click the link below for your operating system to download the TSG SysInfo Utility. Click on "Save File" then double-click the file to run it. Copy and paste the report in your initial post. Windows 7 and later (downloads a file named tsginfo.exe) | Windows XP (downloads a file named SysInfo.exe)

Looks like it is old hardware because it has reached EOL (end of life) Last update was in 2018

So I don't think you'll get new drivers.
See if this works:
make sure that you don't physically connect the card to the computer until Kali is fully booted, connect the card, then go to the devices menu (beside the file menu) >> USB >> Click your device.
In addition, you can try the following when you connect the adapter to the VM:
I went here https://files.alfa.com.tw/?dir=[1] WiFi USB adapter/AWUS036NHA/QIG
and dowloaded the UserGuide (UG).
It says the device supports: Windows 2000, XP, Vista and 7.
There is no mention of iOS.

In addition, you can try the following when you connect the adapter to the VM:
- Experiment with connecting the adapter before and after Kali fully loads, and after you log in as root.
- Experiment with setting the adapter to use USB 2.0 and 3.0 in Kali system settings in Vbox.
- Make sure you connect the adapter directly to the computer, don't use a hub or an extension.
- And experiment with connecting the adapter to different USB ports.

You will need a linux driver for that USB wireless dongle if it's going to be used with Kali.
Even if you set that up ok the fact Kali is running inside a Virtual Machine inside OS-X could complicate things.
