  1. Why can't Hyper-V play nicely with VirtualBox?


    So, I use VM's mostly for curiosity at the moment, I have Windows 10 Pro, and so I decided to check and compare Hyper-V to VirtualBox, and VirtualBox seems vastly superior to Hyper-V (Hyper-V having no sound drivers is a big issue). So I decided to stick with VirtualBox, however, it freezes immediately after boot with a green turtle symbol on the bottom status bar. The reason for this (according to the VirtualBox forums) is that when Windows utilizes virtualization, it does something that makes it unable to share with VirtualBox. The current solution? Disable any Windows Features that utilize virtualization, and that fixes the issue. However I don't like that because some of the Windows Defender features utilize virtualization and they shouldn't have to be turned off just so I can VirtualBox. Is this issue known (I'm assuming it is)? Is it being worked on? Do any of the insider builds have this fixed?

    :)

    Virtualbox and Hyper-V

    No, it doesn't work, just tried it with Hyper-V enabled and it won't run a VM. Same problem as before. If I disable Hyper-V and reboot the VM works fine. I have the latest Oracle VB.

    Virtualbox and Hyper-V

    Allegedly, virtualbox 6 and hyper-v can now coexist i..e you can run VB6 if Hyper-V is enabled - not tried it.
