VirtualBox and Docker Won’t Run | Because of Windows 10 Hyper-V?

I managed to resolve the issue but not by uninstalling Hyper-V.

I saw a couple of suggestions but I find this one suitable

(it makes sense since I’m not an IT guru):

STEP 1:

Open the command prompt as an Administrator.

STEP 2:

Run the command with no argument:

bcdedit

After you run the above command, you will see that the property hypervisorlaunchtype is set Auto by default.

See screenshot below:

STEP 3:

Disable Hyper-V by running the command:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

STEP 4:

Restart your PC system to use VirtualBox.

To turn Hyper-V back on, run the command:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto

You will need to reboot the system to use Hyper-V.
