What is Hyper-V?

Hyper-V is a virtualization platform from Microsoft that allows you to create virtual machines and run them on your physical computer. This means that you can run multiple operating systems on a single machine, which can be very useful for testing or development purposes. Hyper-V is available on Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 or higher.

How to create a virtual machine in Hyper-V 2019

Creating a virtual machine in Hyper-V 2019 is a simple process that can be completed in a few steps.

First, open the Hyper-V Manager and click on the “Create a new virtual machine” option.

Next, you will be prompted to choose a name and location for your new virtual machine. Be sure to choose a name that is easy to remember and a location that is easy to access.

After you have chosen a name and location, you will be asked to select a generation for your virtual machine. For most purposes, the “Generation 1” option will suffice.

Next, you will need to allocate memory (RAM) for your virtual machine. The amount of memory you allocate will depend on the needs of your specific virtual machine.

Finally, you will need to create a virtual hard disk for your virtual machine. Again, the size of the virtual hard disk will depend on the needs of your specific virtual machine.

Once you have completed these steps, your virtual machine will be ready to use.
