Enabling virtual machine platform in Windows 10 is a straightforward process. To enable the feature, you need to go through several steps:
1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key + R simultaneously to open the Run dialogue box.
2. In the Open field, type “optionalfeatures” and then click OK or hit Enter on your keyboard.
3. A new window will appear with a list of optional Windows features that can be enabled or disabled; locate “Hyper-V” and check its box if it isn't already checked off (if it is already checked off, you don't need to do anything else). Then click OK at the bottom of this window and wait for all changes to take effect–this may take a few minutes depending on your computer's speed and specs–after which Hyper-V should now be running on your system as an available platform for virtual machines and other related tasks.
