Docker Desktop for Windows: No hypervisor is present on this system

Pingpong picture Pingpong · Dec 24, 2017 · Viewed 21.9k times · Source

I am new to Docker Desktop for Windows. I am getting an error when I tried the hello world example by following this. Update

Below is the steps I followed:

1 Installed Docker for Windows, stable version

2 Both Hyper-V and Virtualization have been enabled on my Windows 10

However, error below when switch to Linux container:

An error occurred. Hardware assisted virtualization and data execution protection must be enabled in the BIOS. See https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/troubleshoot/#virtualization-must-be-enabled

Please note the problem in this post occurs when using Windows containers. Step 3 is using Windows containers, not Linux.

3 Error below when trying out hello world

Here is what worked for me: Open command prompt as admin and run

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto

and then reboot

What had happened: I had to start an android emulator and Android Studio said that "Emulator is incompatible With Hyper-V" so it ran this command to disable hyper-v bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
