      An issue that may come up is I don't believe he has admin access to install roles.

      He might, but not from what I saw.

      Yet he can be allowed to add an completely uncontrolled OS on his desktop?

      Not in any shop I control.

      /sigh - this is a home machine - if he doesn't have admin, it's because he forgot the password.

      didnt forget passsword.. just didnt right click and run as admin

      LOL, that'll do it.

        .
        If it is not for personal learning, then take the entire thing back to your boss and tell them you need Hyper-V added to your

        Something everyone needs to remember - William has installed Windows 10, as far as I know, exactly once. When I helped him install this laptop. He's an IT neophyte and needs tons of help, even on the most basic things becuase he's fumbling completely brand new.

        What he does need are specific tasks to try to accomplish - unfortunately, he choose a task - installing Unifi in a VM on Windows - that's not exactly novice level.

            Right click start, choose apps and features.

            Click on Programs and Features on the right (or if window size is too small, scroll down to see it)

            Click Turn Windows Features on or off (this is where you will need admin password).

            Check Hyper-V and click OK.

              Apparently i dont have enough space for a fedora dual boot.. @JaredBusch do you have a walkthrough on how to use hyper-v?

              You just "install the Hyper-V role" under roles.

              He couldn't open device manager, he doesn't have access to install roles.

              Roles are not under device manager.

              oh ffs. . . are you on your literal high horse today? . . .

              This has nothing to do with being literal or not.

              You were telling him to look in the wrong f***ing place.

                  I never even got the the point of trying to install Hyper-V for him. It was Vbox doesn't work, you can try these alternatives, Hyper-V, KVM, XenServer etc in a dualboot scenario.

                  A lot of people are using KVM on the forums, you can ask there if that is what you want to do.

                  So all of you can pound sand!

                          What is wrong with virtual box? sounds like you never setup networking in your other thread. did no one confirm that?

                            You might think, being Jared's high horse and all, that I'd be virtual. But I'm not, I'm a literal horse. Not like a Type-1 Horse-V that just appears like a horse.

                                Virtual box runs fine, then once I get done with the install it freezes. How would i check networking setup. Refer to @Dashrender 's reply. I am literally new to IT ( most ive done is what @scottalanmiller refers to as 'bench' work)

                                          Hold on. Lets back up here. Is virtualization enabled in the bios/uefi for the CPU? That could be part of your problem.

                                            Yes. I encountered that problem a while ago and got it fixed
