I am running a Linux Mint virtual machine on Windows 10, and getting the following error: enter image description here

Host system

  • Windows 10 Pro (10.0.19043 Build 19043)
  • Dell G3 with Intel Core i5 10-300H CPU
  • VirtualBox 6.0.24

What I've tried so far

  • rebooting
  • looking in BIOS - VT-d is enabled, there is no option for VT-x.

Note that I have also recently installed Windows Subsystem for Linux WSL2 with Ubuntu recently.

Start up in BIOS. Look for these settings:

Look at this article:

VT-x settings

Vt-x is not enabled in the BIOS settings. The machine’s CPU does not support vt-x. Hyper-V virtualization is enabled in Windows. Core location is enabled.

Solutions:

Disable Hyper-V Virtualization. Disable Core Isolation from Windows Defender. Enable VT-X from BIOS Settings.

See if these work, or alternatively if your system will not run 64-bit guests.

  • I tried all three ways mentioned in that article, and it hasn't solved the issue.

  • That means your computer (and BIOS, UEFI setup) does not allow 64-bit guests.

  • Eventually, I tried the following command, and it worked: bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

Issuing the following command and rebooting solved the problem: bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
