Windows 10: Hyper-V enabling failed with error code 0x800F0831

Hi ,

I'm trying to enable Hyper-V Management tools and Platform so the User can use Hyper-V manager but it failed with message " Windows couldn't complete the requested changes. Please reboot and try again. Error code 0x800F0831".

I've rebooted the pc and checked the BIOS and yes the Virtualization Technology (VTX) is enabled. FYI this is a HP Compaq Elite 8300 pc with 32GB RAM. I checked the logs , but I don't see anything related to HyperV errors there. And the user hasn't complained of any other pc issues. Can someone please help ? Many thanks in advanced.

:)

 

Cannot turn off Hyper V, cannot run Virtual Box machines or VMWare machines

Since the latest update:

Edition: Windows 10 Pro

Verion: 1607

OS Build: 14393.222

I can no longer turn off Hyper V and thus cannot run Virtual Box machines or VMware machines.

When I attempt to turn off Hyper V and restart Windows as requested, Windows simply re-enables Hyper V.

Then when I try to run a Virtual Box machine, I get an error like this:

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Centos 70.

VT-x is not available (VERR_VMX_NO_VMX).

Result Code:

Component:
ConsoleWrap

Interface:
IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}

When I try to start a VMware machine, I get this:

VMware Player and Hyper-V are not compatible. Remove the Hyper-V role from the system before running VMware Player.

But as I have noted, I am not able to turn off Hyper-V since the Anniversary Update.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 

Error when installing Hyper-V on Windows 10 Pro

Hi There,

I'm new to this forum. I've had Windows 10 now for a while and I would like to enable Hyper-V so that I can use the Android emulator in Visual Studio. However, once I've selected Hyper-V from the 'Add or Remove Windows Features' dialog, the program appears
to install normally but fails just before completion with the following error:

The parameter is incorrect.

Error Code: 0x80070057

Am an Administrator on my system and I've tried various fixes found online but none so far have worked. If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance

 

ps. Its a Windows 10 Pro and I already ran some updates but still no luck.

 

Hi Froydo, did you eventually find out the cause of this issue ? I have exactly the same problem on my Windows 10 Pro 64-bit. More precisely, I can install all components under "Hyper-V", except "Hyper-V services" (installation ends up with the 0x800F0831 error code).

 

For information, this issue has been solved on my PC with the Windows 10 Creators update.
