Install Hyper-V

Hyper-V is built into Windows as an optional feature -- there is no Hyper-V download or installable component. There are several ways to enable the built-in Hyper-V role.

Enable Hyper-V using PowerShell

1. Open a PowerShell console as Administrator.
2. Run the following command:

   PowerShellCopy

   Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-V -All
   												

   If the command couldn‘t be found, make sure you‘re running PowerShell as Administrator.

When the installation has completed you need to reboot the computer.

Enable Hyper-V with CMD and DISM

The Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool (DISM) helps configure Windows and Windows images. Among its many applications, DISM can enable Windows features while the operating system is running.

To enable the Hyper-V role using DISM:

1. Open up a PowerShell or CMD session as Administrator.
2. Type the following command:

   PowerShellCopy

   DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /All /FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-V
   

   

For more information about DISM, see the?DISM Technical Reference.

Manually enable the Hyper-V role

1. Right click on the Windows button and select ‘Programs and Features‘.
2. Select?Turn Windows Features on or off.
3. Select?Hyper-V?and click?OK.

When the installation has completed you are prompted to restart your computer.
