Hyper-V cannot be disabled whatever I do

by |Published

On Lenovo ThinkPad T14, Ryzen 5 6650U, Windows 11 24H2, I have to use nested hypervisor on VMWare Workstation 17 when using Hyper-V. Because visual performance of VMware is better than Hyper-V.

  1. So I disabled this and related things(including all Hyper-V suboptions, WSL, Windows Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform), then reboot. Unfortunately systeminfo gives me Hyper-V detected. I turned it on and off again but same. I recognize that security settings(such DMA Protection, Core Integrity) could take some trouble(Core Integrity is disabled). I know that using command Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All and control panel are equal.
  2. I stopped all Hyper-V services and reboot, however, nothing changes.

I want to say Hyper-V or Windows 11 is weird. Also Virtualbox has this problem(not able to use nested virtual technology), and Nox Player has similar trouble(VT-X not enabled).

should I have extreme choices like touching registry or clean reinstall the OS?
