Enable Hyper-V to create virtual machines on Windows 10.


Hyper-V can be enabled in many ways including using the Windows 10
control panel, PowerShell (my favorite) or using the Deployment Imaging
Servicing and Management tool (DISM). This documents walks through each
option.

Note: Hyper-V is built into Windows as an optional


feature -- there is no Hyper-V download.

Check Requirements
 Windows 10 Enterprise, Pro, or Education
 64-bit Processor with Second Level Address Translation (SLAT).
 CPU support for VM Monitor Mode Extension (VT-c on Intel CPUs).
 Minimum of 4 GB memory.
The Hyper-V role cannot be installed on Windows 10 Home.

Upgrade from Windows 10 Home edition to Windows 10 Pro by opening


up Settings > Update and Security > Activation.

For more information and troubleshooting, see Windows 10 Hyper-V System


Requirements.

Enable Hyper-V using PowerShell

Open a PowerShell console as Administrator.


2.
3.

4.

If the command couldn't be found, make sure you're running PowerShell as


Administrator.

When the installation has completed, reboot.

Enable Hyper-V with CMD and DISM


The Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool (DISM) helps
configure Windows and Windows images. Among its many applications, DISM
can enable Windows features while the operating system is running.

To enable the Hyper-V role using DISM:


1.

Open up a PowerShell or CMD session as Administrator.


2.
3.

Type the following command:


4.
PowerShellCopy
DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /All /FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-
V

For more information about DISM, see the DISM Technical Reference.

Enable the Hyper-V role through Settings
