Hello there,

You can try to Reset the Network Connection and see if that helps.

The command will remove all your existing connections, so we recommend you create a system restore point before executing this command.

-Open PowerShell in admin mode.

-In the PowerShell console, type in the command below and hit Enter to restart all network adapters and remove MUX objects.

netcfg -d

-Exit PowerShell when the command executes.

-Now, open Virtual Switch Manager in Hyper-V Manager and try to create an external switch and see if the error reoccurs

Hope this resolves your Query !!
