Didn’t turn on Hyper-V manually, however I see while installing VMware Workstation in Windows 11?

Question

Hi,

I didn’t enable or turn on Hyper-V manually in Windows 11.

I checked by these ways,

• Win+R (as Administrator) > systeminfo
• In Windows features list Hyper-V is not showing.
• In Windows features, Windows Hypervisor Platform is checked. I unchecked it.
• Win+R (as Administrator) > services.msc

In all ways, I didn’t find, Hyper-V is enabled.

While installing VMware Workstation in Windows 11, I see message as below.

Please let me know, where I can check and disable Hyper-V?

With Regards

Maybe you need a later version of vmware.

Hello there,

You can try to disable Hyper V from BIOS .

Navigate to Virtualization Technology (VTx) under the System Security option in the Security tab of your BIOS management menu.

The option may not be called Virtualization Technology or have the term VTx or VT-x in it. It may be called Hardware Virtualization or Virtualization, etc.

It looks like the case of running in User Level Mode and in that case, workstation cannot use VMware's hypervisor, but instead it has to go through the Hypervisor API that Microsoft provides. It recently cause UNSUPPORTED PROCESSOR stop code on my VMware.

I resolved it with using this command which turns off ULM:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

If you need ULM again so that Windows Hypervisor can be used, you can use this command later:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto

Hope this helps!
