  2. Unable to enable virtual machine platform.

    I'm sorry that the issue still persists. Yes, it's possible that having VMware and VirtualBox installed on your computer is causing conflicts with the virtualization features in Windows. You can try uninstalling both programs, then restarting your computer and attempting to enable the virtual machine platform again. If this works, you may need to choose between using the virtual machine platform or using VMware and VirtualBox. Alternatively, you can try enabling the Hypervisor Platform feature instead of Hyper-V, which allows for coexistence between Hyper-V and other virtualization programs.

  3. Enabling Virtual machine platform slows down windows VM

    I am trying to host Windows 10 enterprise 2004 on Kubernetes using kubevirt. I can host the instance and everything is working and fast when accessed remotely but when I enable Virtual machine platform the vm slows down significantly. Just enabling wsl does
    not seem to affect the instance, it is only when I try to enable wsl 2 for docker use by enabling Virtual machine platform.

    I have restarted the instance after turning on the feature.

    In the process tab I can see vmmem is using like 1.5G memory but I have given the instance 16G so I thought that should not be the issue.

    Some of the things I have tried to solve this:

    Optimized the vm using vmware optimizer tool.

    Only using RAM by disabling virtual memory.

    Please let me know where I can look to debug this. Or maybe some pointers as to what I might be doing wrong.

    Thank you!

    Docker Desktop - Virtual Machine Platform not enabled

    Cannot enable Virtual Machine Platform

    I'm running Windows 10 Enterprise Version 10.0.19043.1826

    I was trying to install WSL2 but when I was trying to enable Virtual Machine Platform I got this error when restarting: "Failed to update services".

    I ran systeminfo.exe and checked to make sure virtualization is enabled.

    Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
