I am getting error 0x80370102 while installing Ubuntu.

  • I have enabled Hyper-V, Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform and Windows Subsystem for Linux. I disabled them, rebooted and re-enabled, rebooted and tried again with the same result.
  • Virtualization is enabled in UEFI.
  • I am able to create VMs in Hyper-V but not able to run them.
  • WSL1 works fine.
  • I have run WSL2 before on this computer so the hardware is supported.
  • No other virtualization software.

    @Ramhound Already mentioned that in question. I have already tried that, the feature is enabled.

    As I expected you have software that is interfering with Hyper-V being fully functional. Do you by chance have VirtualBox, VMware, Android Emulator, Docker, or any other application that might be using the VT-x hardware virtualization installed on your system? Please provide the output of bcdedit /v, the output of that command, will help us diagnose your problem

    The processor does support SLAT, as I've said I've run WSL2 on it before. I've also run Hyper-V VMs on it before.

    It does, I've run both WSL2 and normal Hyper-V VMs on it before (including Windows VMs).

    @Ramhound I was able to fix my issue. See my answer.

I fixed this issue myself following these steps:

  1. Open Windows Security.
  2. Go to App & Browser Control.
  3. Go to Exploit protection settings.
  4. Go to Program settings.
  5. Set C:\Windows\System32\vmcompute.exe and C:\Windows\System32\vmwp.exe to 0 system overrides.
  6. Restart these processes.

Now I am able to run VMs as well as install WSL2 distros.
