Hello,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Many virtualization implementations depend on hardware virtualization extensions that are available on most modern processors. Includes Intel VT-x and AMD-V. Only one software component can use this hardware at a time. Hardware can't be shared between virtualization applications.

To use other virtualization software, you need to disable Hyper-V Hypervisor, Device Guard, and Credential Guard.

You can refer to the following links for details:

Disabling Hyper-V to run virtualization software - Windows Client | Microsoft Learn

I hope the information above is helpful.

Best regards
