Call to WHvSetupPartition failed: ERROR_SUCCESS (Last=0xc000000d/87) (VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED).

Post by Sab »

Hi All,

I have gone through the resolution provided by different members in the group. I have tried multiple resolution but i am unable to fix this issue in my set up.

i am currently setting up VirtualBox 6.0.4 with Ubuntu 16.04. When click on Start i am getting following error:
Issue:
Call to WHvSetupPartition failed: ERROR_SUCCESS (Last=0xc000000d/87) (VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED).
Result Code:
E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component:
ConsoleWrap
Interface:
IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}

I have tried the following steps based on the previous resolutions:
1. run cmd bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
2. Unchecked Virtual Machine Platform & Windows Hypervisor Platform
3. Unchecked Containers & Windows Sandbox

System configuration:
Windows 10 home edition
Version 10.0.18363 Build 18363
System Model Nitro AN715-51
System Type x64-based PC
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz, 2592 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s)
Virtualization - enabled in Advance BIOS

Can anyone please help me resolve this issue.

It appears you were on the right track. "VERR_NEM_VM_CREATE_FAILED" means that some service in Windows 10 that uses Microsoft Hyper-V is active in your host PC OS. In most cases Hyper-V blocks Virtualbox.

To turn Hyper-V off completely, do this:

1. Shut down all programs. You will have to reboot your host.

2. See I have a 64bit host, but can't install 64bit guests. This tutorial has a couple more things to look for in step 2. Be sure these are all turned off.

3. Find the Command Prompt icon, right click it and choose Run As Administrator.

4. Enter this command:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
5. Enter this command:
shutdown -s -t 2
6. When the computer turns off, unplug it for 20 seconds. Then plug it in again and boot up Windows 10.

If your Virtualbox does not start successfully, see I have a 64bit host, but can't install 64bit guests. The 64-bits tutorial has a couple more things to look for in step 2. For further info, see https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/139 ... puter.html

If you look at this and think "I've done that already", the 64-bits tutorial is all we know about turning off Hyper-V.
