I want to enable Hyper-V in Windows Features, but

Question

I am very very confused about this. I have a Sony Vaio I7 laptop (There is a Hyper-V setting in bios, so I am easy to enable Hyper-V)

I want to develop Windows Phone 8. I have read this guide from Microsoft but even if I enable Hyper-V in bios, Windows Feature does not show Hyper-V option like MSDN guide.

(At first there is Hyper-V in windows feature but I don't know Hyper-V missing lately)

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you friends.

Answer 1

You will need the pro version to get the hyper-v feature. You can read here for more help as well: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh857623.aspx

Answer 2

Only problem your Hyper-V is not running is because you Don't have the Windows 8 Pro version of the window. So get that first.

Answer 3

If someone is having this problem of missing tickbox on Windows 7 Pro, it can be solved by installing
