Impossible to Disable Hyper V - Any virtual machine Keeps on detecting it even though ive tried all the method of how to disable it

Hi Jomar Racimo，

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

Questions about using Hyper-V are beyond the support of the Answers community. Microsoft Learn is the place to go for answers. You can ask questions there to get answers from other professionals who use Android emulators like you and others.

Until then, I will try my best to provide some methods for you, if you try not to, please click the hyperlink above to visit the corresponding community to ask questions.

In addition to turning off the Hyper-V feature, you can also turn off the core isolation feature in Windows Security Center to see the effect. I'll show you how to turn this off, both from the security center and by modifying the registry.

From Security Center:

1. Go to Start - Update and Security - Windows Security Center

2. Click Devices Security

   

3. Click on Core Isolation details

   

4. Disable this feature (turn off)

   

From Registry Key:

1. Click search on the taskbar, type "Registry Editor" and open it.

2. Below to locate the path and find HypervisorEnforcedCodeIntegrity key values.

   

3. Double click the "Enabled" key to change the number to 0, click OK and restart your computer.

   

Disclaimer: Generally, modifying registry subkeys or work group is intended for advanced users, administrators, and IT Professionals. It can help fix some problems; however, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For further protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click here to view the article.

This is how to turn off everything else related to Hyper-V except the control panel. Hopefully that works.

If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Hello Manson,

Thank you for the reply. But unfortunately even doing the core isolation disabled. Any emulators still detected my Hyper v. Kindly See the picture. I hope you will reply again. Thank you so much

Thanks for the reply. Do you try to click search on the taskbar, type "Services" and open it, find Hyper-V related services in the list of services and make sure they are all disabled?

Ive look through it and found hv host service is running - so i try disabled it restart and still hyper v still detected :(

Also you might have an interest on this event viewer. And any hyper v is not even here. Its so confusing now, I dont know if maybe its on my OS . I hope you will respond again :)

Did you restart the computer after you changed these operations? After the registry and service entries have changed, they need to be restarted to take effect.

Yes. Ive Already restarted it. Been doing this almost a week now. Still no solution available. I can run a VMware machine. But not Android emulator such as Nox will keep detecting it. Which is wierd. It definitely not on the Nox side though because even Bluestack and Memu emulator keeps on detecting it too.

Thanks again for your reply. I think we've tried everything we can. I suggest you click on the hyperlink in my first response and visit the Microsoft Learn community. There is a section on Hyper-V where you can ask questions. There are experts on how to use Hyper-V. I think there will be a way to "completely" shut down all features and services on Hyper-V.

In the meantime, the thread will remain open for another 72 hours for other Answer community users to provide additional suggestions and help.

Thank you for your understanding!

Hello. I Hope you still reply on me. As of now, I just discovered that i have hyper-v ethernet adapters on my device manager. Maybe this is the one that i should remove?

Yes, please remove the Hyper-V Ethernet adapter.

In addition, you can try to restart the computer to enter the BIOS settings when booting and turn off CPU virtualization temporarily to see the effect. There is another place for the settings for virtualization. In the "kernel isolation" of Windows Security Center, you can refer to the screenshot below to turn this feature off.
