  1. Is Hyper-V enabled when I install WSL 2?


    I kept Hyper-V disabled before because I had noticed a slight performance hit when it was enabled.

    But I understand that WSL 2, which I absolutely want to keep enabled, uses some kind of VM. Does that mean that enabling WSL 2 automatically enables the full hypervisor, with the main OS being in a VM? Can I enable Hyper-V in "Turn Windows features on or off" without taking a further performance hit (since it's already enabled for WSL)?

    Can't Enable Hyper-V in Windows 10 Professional

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I appreciate your effort on this. As per my research the error code 0x800f0831 is generated when .Net Framework 3.5 is not enabled on the computer. I suggest you to try enabling .Net Framework 3.5 on the computer. Follow the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows key + R, to open
      Run
      dialog box.
    2. Type appwiz.cpl and click on
      OK
      .
    3. Click on Turn Windows features on or off.
    4. Now, select the check box for .Net Framework 3.5 and click on
      OK.
    5. Restart the computer.


    You can also check if Virtualization feature is enabled in BIOS or not, if it is not enabled, I suggest you to enable it.



    You may also refer the troubleshooting steps performed by Jins Peter replied on August 13, 2019 in the thread

    Is Hyper-V enabled when I install WSL 2?

    Enabling Hyper-V after it has been disabled?

    Hi, I was doing Android development on my Surface Pro 3. Use of the android emulators required hyper-v being turned off, so I turned it off. Now, I'm working on a UWP app, and use of the emulators requires hyper-v. I have enabled hyper-v in the "Turn Windows
    features on/off" tool, so it's enabled there, but it doesn't seem to be enabled elsewhere, possibly the BIOS. Problem is, there is no option in the SP3 BIOS to enable hyper-v. Windows tells me in two places (task manager, turn Win features on/off) that hyper-v
    is enabled. However, running the following script in powershell:

    tells me that it is disabled. Visual Studio also tells me it is disabled.

    Any suggestions on how to fix?
