Vagrant Centos-7 Guest [Win10Pro] - VBox/vmdk Not Accessible

Problem:
Recently installed Virtualbox and vagrant (I'm new to vagrant) on Windows 10 Pro host. Installed both VirtualBox and Vagrant as user that is a member of the administrator group, pulled down the centos-7 vagrant box and followed the steps to "up" the box. The virtualbox guest boots but hangs with no ability to login. No login prompt from the VB console or via ssh. I have re-installed VirtualBox twice. I'm not sure if this is a VirtualBox issue or a vagrant issue. I've spent the better part of a day googling, searching the VirtualBox forums and some half-hearted vagrant searchs. The errors I'm seeing are in the VirtualBox VBoxSVC.log so I've focused my efforts more toward VirtualBox (for now).

Windows 10 Pro [1909], VT-x enabled in UEFI.
Virtual Box : 6.1.4r136177 (Qt5.6.2)
Vagrant : 2.2.7
Vagrant Box : bento/centos-7 (202002.04.0)

Vagrant Startup Output :

The VirtualBox logs are zipped and attached but entries I believe to be relevant are pasted below.

File Locations

C:\Users\pitwipe\Vagrantfile
Looking through the VBoxSVC.log it appears the local .vmdk image cannot be found as it appears to be referencing a path to the disk image file that does not exist.
It's also referring to the wrong VBox machine name. At no point did I manually configure either of these items.
Here are the relevant log entries:

Looking at the log output above:

The path to this newly created VirtualBox VM (via vagrant) is : 
  1. Reported  :  C:\Users\pitwipe\VirtualBox VMs\centos-7.7-x86_64\centos-7.7-x86_64-disk001.vmdk
Actual    :  C:\Users\pitwipe\VirtualBox VMs\pitwipe_default_1586194851525_7330\centos07.7-x86_64-disk001.vmdk
Related to above it's also claiming a different VBox guest name: 
  1. Reported                                    : centos-7.7-x86_64
Actual dynamically created VBoxguest name   : pitwipe_default_1586194851525_7330
Lastly, this does not exist either: 
  1. C:\Users\pitwipe\VirtualBox VMs\centos-7.7-x86_64_1586194846576_35423\centos-7.7-x86_64_1586194846576_35423.vbox
The vagrant auto-generated config file has only a few line:

Code: Select all

  Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
    config.vm.box = "bento/centos-7"
  end
I've been looking through VirtualBox and vagrant config files but I'm fairly new to both of these and haven't found anything matching the log data above. Apologies if this is a common issue but I found no references in the FAQ or elsewhere. I've destroyed and rebuilt the VM a number of times trying different things.. deleting the resulting vagrant config files, deleting the logs to try and keep things as clean as possible. Any help would be appreciated.

It's neither. It's an Hyper-V issue. Please take a look at the following post of scottgus1: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=97501&p=473074#p473074.

Through Control Panel then "Turn Windows features on or off" it shows that Hyper-V is not selected...

There are a lot of Windows 10 components implicitly using Hyper-V (even on Windows 10 Home). Focus on the bcdedit command which implicitly disables the Hyper-V core functionality that affects VirtualBox.

This worked - much appreciated.

The instructions I was following did indicate ensuring Hyper-V was disabled, which appeared to be so as evidenced by the unchecked box in the Control Panel. Apparently not.
Looking at the bcdedit /enum output showed that the hypervisorlaunchtype setting was set to "auto" and not explicitly off.
