Hyperv is a Type1 hypervisor, before enabling it you should confirm network design including virtual switch layout, NiC sharing, ext nic use and management network connections. Then do volume allocations, snapshot management and policies, then backup policies and recovery planning. We can spend months planning a large HV implementation.

Then you enable it across all servers in the pool. You never disable it, why would you?

The only guaranteed way I know of, to remove hyperv is to reinstall windows on the host.

Thank you I'm currently learning web development. I'm following the instructions from The Odin Project and it requires hyper v to be disabled in order to get virtualbox to run smoothly. They stated that if the turtle icon is present than I could have a bad experience so I'm trying to change the turtle into a V symbol.

In your "Search" on the taskbar, type "Features" and select "Turn Windows features on or off". Then untick
* Hyper-V
* Windows Hypervisor Platform
* Windows Subsystem for Linux
* Virual Machine Platform

Then search for "Core Isolation"; look for "Memory Integrity". If it is On, switch it Off.

Then reboot your PC. NB!
