# 3. Hyper-V

* In order to turn off Hyper-V in Windows, we are going to start by opening a Windows Powershell as Admin. This can be done by typing powershell into your windows search, and pressing "Run as administrator" beside it.
* Now that we have Powershell open, copy and paste the following lines of code separately, then press enter:  \
  `bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off`\
  `Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All`
* Getting an error that says "Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature : Feature name Microsoft-Hyper-V-All is unknown." on the above is completely normal, however, getting a success message is also normal. Once this is done, restart your PC for the changes to take affect.
