Hyper-V virtualization - Setup and Use in Windows 10  

Kari said:

No, it shouldn't. I have to knock the wood but I have never had any issues in setting up Hyper-V.

Have you tried to reboot? That error message is rarely seen, it's caused by Hyper-V not connecting to your actual physical network adapters, reboot often solves the issue.

Reboot didn't solve the issue.

Could it be that this is a dual boot machine?

Usually you shouldn't do this manually, the Hyper-V Virtual Switch Manager takes care of that, but check that the Hyper-V Extensible Virtual Switch is selected in your network adapter properties. If not, select it, save the settings and reboot.

Where is that? It's blurred and I can't read it.

Thanks, Kari.

Before I start over, I want to make sure I have Virtualization turned on in my BIOS.

If I'm correct, Enable means turn on and Disable means turn off. So here's what it looks like now:

Attachment 52817

So, does this tell me Virtualization is enabled?

That looks to me like it is currently disabled, and you need to change it.

I'm pretty sure it's enabled. Because I "lost" the first error I was getting. Although I have a second error now.

If it says Enable, that means you should do something (in my case, page up or down) to enable it. If it should say enabled, that means it's enabled. and nothing needs to be done. Same with Disable vs Disabled.

Oh yeah, that makes sense now.

So did you get it working then?

Nope. I've removed it and will wait until the next build drops. Then I'll do a clean install and try again before installing a bunch of stuff.

Bummer.
