Windows 10: Windows Update + Hyper-V problem

Hi.


Today, Windows Update installed some updates on my Windows 10 system (compilation of Windows 10 17134.228).


I have a hyper-v virtual machine running in the background, but when the Windows update reboots the computer, do not worry about the status of the VM and simply restart the computer. The virtual machine was turned off without any care. On this occasion, I was lucky and I did not lose any data in the VM, but I think that windows update should consider if VM is running before proceeding.

Pd excuse my English

Hola.

Hoy, Windows Update instaló algunas actualizaciones en mi sistema Windows 10 (compilación de Windows 10 17134.228).

Tengo una máquina virtual hyper-v ejecutándose en segundo plano, pero cuando la actualización de Windows reinicia la computadora, no se preocupe por el estado de la VM y simplemente reinicia la computadora. La máquina virtual fue apagada sin ningún cuidado. En esta oportunidad, tuve suerte y no perdí ningún dato en la VM, pero creo que windows update debería considerar si se están ejecutando VM antes de proceder. --

Hyper V deativication

Hi Geoffrey,

Hyper-V lets you run an operating system or computer system as a virtual machine on Windows. Before proceeding in disabling
Hyper-V, please create a backup of your files for security purposes.

To disable Hyper-V, please follow the steps below:

• On the Cortana search box, type Turn Windows Features on or off and press
  Enter.
• Look for the Hyper-V folder.
• Uncheck the tick-box next to the main Hyper-V folder and click
  OK.
• Restart your PC.

Should you have further questions, please let us know.

 

Hyper-V

That's the problem that I cannot find Hyper-V in Windows Features list, hence I am not able to turn it on or off.

 

Where is the Hyper V Manager, How to I start it ?

I am trying to setup an XP virtual Machine on Windows 10 Pro.

I followed the steps in Neil Peterson article of 5/9/2016.

System Requirements - done - ok

Install Hyper-V - done - ok

Create a Virtual Switch - skip

Create a Virtual Machine

Create a Virtual Machine with Hyper-V Manager

These steps walk through how to manually create a virtual machine and deploy an operating system to this virtual machine.

• 
  In Hyper-V Manager, click Action > New >
  Virtual Machine to bring up the New
  

Uhhhhhhhhh - this step obviously implies one knows

1) Where the Hyper-V Manager is

2) How to start the Hyper-V Manager

Isn't that odd ?
