Cannot Enable Hyper-V on my machine

2

I'm trying to enable Hyper-V on my machine in order to use Docker. I've tried letting Docker enable it, using Windows Features to enable it, and using Powershell (as administrator). My system is running Windows 10 Pro 64-bit and has all of the Hyper-V options enabled (VM Monitor Mode Extensions, SLAT, Virtualization Enabled in Firmware, Data Execution Protection).

Windows Version: 10.0.14393 Build 14393 Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz, 3401 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s) Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 16.0 GB

Running this command in PowerShell (as admin) has following output:

PS C:\WINDOWS\logs\dism> DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /All /FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-V

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.14393.0

Image Version: 10.0.14393.0

Enabling feature(s)
[==========================100.0%==========================]

Error: 0x800f0831

DISM failed. No operation was performed.
For more information, review the log file.

In the log file:

Any idea what I need to do to enable Hyper-V on this machine?

Try restore image health (and/or cleaning the image)

run these commands

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

to perform image repair

Dism. exe /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

this will cleanup (remove) superseded windows files over 45 days old in the component store.

Then perfoming a file integrity check by running

sfc /scannow

This finds and fixes corrupted sustem files (note SFC has been known to flag perfectly good files as corrupt but doesn't harm harm anything)

Try disabling and enabling Hyper -V using the following command:

Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V-All

in PowerShell (running as admin).
