Windows 10: Activating Windows 11 Home Virtual Machine within Hyper V, running on Windows 11 Pro Host

I have recently purchased a Windows 11 Home license from Microsoft Store directly, not a third party as I wanted to avoid license issues. I am running Windows 11 in a VM within Hyper-V and it is fully functional including internet. The Host computer is ruining a fully Licensed Windows 11 Pro copy which I also paid for. I have no idea why the valid license provided by Microsoft is not working with my Windows 11 VM.

When Hyper-V is enabled in a Windows 8/10/11 machine, that machine will then boot into the Hypervisor.

Will Windows 11 run in a HyperV virtual machine?

Hi Jorg,

I am Sumit here to assist you with this question.

Yes, I am running Windows 11 in Hyper-V VM with full TPM support. Make sure to create a Gen 2 VM when asked. Only Hyper-V provides full TPM support compared to other Virtual machine products.

Hope that helps.
