As you may know, Hyper-V is only available for use in Enterprise, Pro, and Education versions, and it is not included in the Home version. I wanted to use Hyper-V in the Home version. Today, I did some research and couldn't find any Turkish content. Even the foreign content was insufficient. However, I saw on a German website that someone had accomplished this.

Before starting the process, be sure to back up your data just in case. Firstly, create a new text document and copy and paste the following code:

Code: Copy to Clipboard

pushd "%~dp0"

dir /b %SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\*Hyper-V*.mum >hyper-v.txt

for /f %%i in ('findstr /i . hyper-v.txt 2^>nul') do dism /online /norestart /add-package:"%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\%%i"

del hyper-v.txt

Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Hyper-V-All /LimitAccess /ALL

Then, go to File > Save As in the top left corner, change the file name to "Hyper-V.cmd," select all files from the bottom, and save it.

Right-click on the "Hyper-V.cmd" file and run it as an administrator. A file named "Hyper-V.txt" will appear on the desktop, do not delete it. A CMD window will pop up downloading and installing the necessary files to the C:/Windows/servicing/Packages folder.

There are many files, and this process may take about half an hour. At the end of the installation, the CMD window will prompt you to restart the computer by asking for permission (Y/N). Simply press "Y," and the system will update and restart. Once the system reboots, check if Hyper-V has been installed.

Navigate to:

Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or off

That's it.
As the primary operating system, I installed Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS. It runs smoothly and stable. I initially tried installing Ubuntu as UEFI but it didn't work, so I didn't want to bother with it.
