Step 1 : Check Hyper-V is enabled or not

Under Hyper-V Requirements, If you see a “Yes,” your PC can run Hyper-V

If you see "Yes" next to the four Hyper-V requirements: Your PC can run a virtual machine.
————————————————————————————————————
If you see "No" next to the four Hyper-V requirements: Your CPU doesn’t support virtual machines and/or you need to adjust settings in the BIOS.
————————————————————————————————————
If you see "No" next to "Virtualization Enabled in Firmware" in the results: You will need to reboot into the PC's firmware and enable this feature. The setting's label depends on your PC's motherboard and BIOS version.
————————————————————————————————————
If you see "A hypervisor has been detected. Features required for Hyper-V will not be displayed" in the results: You’re already running Hyper-V in Windows 10
