Windows 10: Virtualization in BIOS is enabled, I have Windows 10 Pro - when I go to turn windows...

(as you can see above "Windows sandbox" mode is missing as an option)

And you can see below virtualization is Enabled.



You can see below that I have Windows 10 Pro installed.

Virtualization enabled in bios but not working


Hi there,

I am trying to run a program which recommends enabling hardware visualization. I have followed the steps to enable Intel VT in uemi/bios menu. However Task Manager says that Virtualization is disabled, despite the fact that I have turned it on in the uemi/bios??

I don't have any anti virus software, I don't have Hyper-V (windows 10 home edition, upgraded from Windows 7).

Please help

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK

Virtualization enabled in bios but not working

Hi there

@Vanderzant

HYPER-V needs W10 PRO or above --not available on W10 Home or any 32 bit versions of Windows.

You CAN run VMWARE PLAYER or VIRTUAL BOX on W10 Home -- even with VT disabled --however note the following

1) To run any sort of 64 bit Virtual machine GUEST you must have VT enabled --it IS possible to run a 64 Bit Guest even on a 32 Bit Host so long as VT is enabled --remember though if running a 64 bit GUEST then max RAM for HOST + GUEST is a max of 4 GB.

2) Any 32 Bit OS can be run as a guest whether or not VT is enabled.

3) Latest versions of VMWARE player need a 64 bit HOST to run it -- older versions are still available --search on the Net for it. VMPLAYER is FREE --install VMWARE tools on the GUEST VM after first power on.
