Hi!Even if you disable Hyper-V in one place, Windows 11 can still re-enable it through other virtualization components (like Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform, Core Isolation/Memory Integrity).
Ensure to follow these steps:
- Turn Off Hyper-V in Windows Features a. Press Win + R, type:
b. Press Enter c. Uncheck:optionalfeatures
- Hyper-V
- Virtual Machine Platform
- Windows Hypervisor Platform
- Windows Sandbox (if listed)
- Windows Subsystem for Linux (if listed) d. Reboot your computer.
- Disable Memory Integrity (Core Isolation) a. Open Windows Security → Device Security → Core isolation details. b. Turn Memory Integrity = Off. c. Restart PC.
- Force Disable via Command Prompt
a. Open Command Prompt (Admin) and run:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
b. Reboot your computer. (To re-enable: bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto)
- Check Group Policy (Windwos Pro/Enterprise only) a. Press Win + R, type gpedit.msc. b. Go to: Computer Configuration → Administrative Templates → System → Device Guard c. Set Turn on Virtualization Based Security = Disabled. d. Reboot your computer.
- Verify That It’s Off a. After restart, run this in Command Prompt: systeminfo | find "Hyper-V"
It should say: Hyper-V Requirements: A hypervisor has not been detected.
Now reinstall BlueStacks N32. If it still refuses, try BlueStacks 64-bit (since Windows 11 is always x64, many apps now prefer 64-bit emulators).
