**DISABLING HYPER V:**

**Determine whether the Hyper-V hypervisor is running:**

To determine whether the Hyper-V hypervisor is running, follow these steps:

1. In the search box, type *msinfo32.exe*.
2. Select **System Information**.
3. In the detail window, locate the following entry:

   A hypervisor has been detected. Features required for Hyper-V will not be displayed.
4. Next, click on **Programs and Features.**
5. In the left pane, click on **Turn Windows features on or off.**
6. In the Windows Features dialog, locate **Hyper-V.**
7. Uncheck the **Hyper-V** option to disable the feature.

Next, scroll down and locate the **Virtual Machine Platform** and **Windows Hypervisor Platform** options.

Unselect both options and click **OK**.

Windows will uninstall Hyper-V and other features from your system.

Once done, restart your PC to apply the changes.

**Disabling Hyper-V Using BCDEDIT:**

You can disable Hyper-V in boot configuration using the BCDEdit tool. Useful if you only want to deactivate Hyper-V and not uninstall it completely.

To disable Hyper-V using BCDEdit:

1. Press the **Win** key and type **cmd**.
2. Right-click on the **Command Prompt** and select **Run as administrator.**
3. In the Command Prompt window, type the following command and press Enter:

Copy

```
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
```

1. When the success message appears, close the Command Prompt, and restart your PC to apply the changes.

**Disabling Hyper-V Using Windows Services:**

To access Windows Services on a Windows operating system, follow these step-by-step instructions:

1. **Open the Run Dialog Box**:
   * Press `Windows + R` on your keyboard. This will open the Run dialog box.
2. **Type "services.msc"**:
   * In the Run dialog box, type "services.msc" (without quotes) into the text field.
3. **Click OK or Press Enter**:
   * Click the "OK" button or press the "Enter" key. This action will launch the Services application.
4. **Accessing Services with Search (Alternate Method)**:
   * Another way to access Services is to use the Windows Search feature:
     * Press `Windows + S` to open the Windows Search bar.
     * Type "Services" into the search bar.
     * Click on "Services" in the search results to open the Services application.
5. **Navigate the Services Application**:
   * Once the Services application is open, you'll see a list of services on the main screen. These services are grouped into columns with headings like "Name," "Status," "Startup Type," and "Log On As."
6. **View and Manage Services**:
   * Scroll down to H , you will see all the hyper v services stop them.
   * To stop the hyper v Services right click on them select properties and select disabled.

**Close the Services Application**:

* When you are done disabling all hyper v services, you can simply close the Services application and restart ur pc
