Creating a virtual switch in Hyper-V raises error message: How can I fix it?

Question

windows11 系统，不管时创建内部还是外部虚拟交换机都报错

Answer 1

Hi yizhichu.

This error indicates that the system was unable to find the files required to perform the creation of a virtual switch. This may be caused by some files being missing or corrupted.

To try to resolve this issue, you can try the following:

1. run the System File Checker tool (sfc /scannow) to check the integrity of the system files and repair any damaged files.
2. try recreating a new virtual switch.

For more information on recreating a virtual switch, you can refer to the following documentation:
