Answer 1

Hi Zacharia Markus,

If your laptop already contains Windows 11 virtual machines, it may be helpful to verify that both Windows and the virtualization components required by those VMs are recognized correctly by the system.

Here are a few additional quick checks that you can try:

1, Verify Virtual Machine Platform

• Press Windows + R, type optionalfeatures.exe and press Enter
• Ensure Virtual Machine Platform is enabled
• Restart the device if you make any changes

2, Confirm virtualization is enabled

• Open Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc)
• Select Performance > CPU
• Check whether Virtualization shows Enabled

If the issue persists, please share more information as suggested by the Independent Advisor that can help narrow down whether the issue is related to Windows features, system configuration, or the virtualization environment itself.

I hope this helps point you in the right direction. Let me know if you need further assistance, feel free to ask me by clicking "Add Comment" or "Add Answer" if you cannot add comment so your response will be visible. Thanks for your effort.
