Hyper-V VM can't start

Hello.

I reinstalled Windows 10 and looks like I have a problem with running Hyper-V on my OS.

I posted a question to answers.microsoft.com and we checked all possible troublespots with my system: virtualization in BIOS, windows features, hypervisor autostart, hyper-v services. Everything looks fine but I still have an error like:
Virtual machine 'New Virtual Machine' could not be started because the hypervisor is not running.

May you please help me with this issue?

OS: Windows 10 Pro 20H2 19042.685

    Hi,

    Please check if the DEP setting is enabled in BIOS.
