How to install Hyper-V on Windows

Hyper-V is a virtualization technology from Microsoft that allows you to create and run virtual machines on a physical host computer. A virtual machine (VM) is a software implementation of a physical computer, and it allows you to run multiple operating systems on a single physical machine. This can be useful for a variety of purposes, such as testing software, running legacy applications, and isolating different environments.

Since the Hyper-V role is built-in Windows, it’s very easy to enable this role. The role is not enabled by default, in this tutorial we show you how to enable the Hyper-V role on your Windows Client. Enabling this role can be done in multiple ways like DISM, PowerShell, or with the GUI. We’ll show now how to enable the Hyper-V role with the GUI.

Install Hyper-v on Windows
  1. Click on start and search for “Turn Windows Features On or Off”.

2. Select Hyper-V in the list and click on OK.

3. Sit back and relax.

NOTE: If you have any error during setup, it’s mostly because Hardware Virtualization is disabled by default.
