wmware workstation don't work with windows 10 pro 1903 - windows

I have updated Windows 10 PRO to 1903. Reinstalling VMware Workstation and setting existing virtual machine when i run it give me this error:
"VMware Workstation and Device/Credential Guard are not compatible. VMware Workstation can be run after disabling Device/Credential Guard."
I have done it. And i have looked too here:
http://www.vmware.com/go/turnoff_CG_DG
But nothing to do. Not solved.
So i ask your how i can solve it.
Thanks

This solved my problem (run from command prompt, as admin..)
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
and reboot windows..

I had the same problem. I had VMware Workstation 15.5.4 and Windwos 10 Pro version 1909 and installed Docker Desktop.
Here how I solved it:
1- Install new VMware Workstation 16.1.0
2- Update my Windwos 10 from 1909 to 20H2
As VMware Guide said in this link: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2146361
If your Host has Windows 10 20H1 build 19041.264 or newer,
upgrade/update to Workstation 15.5.6 or above. If your Host has
Windows 10 1909 or earlier, disable Hyper-V on the host to resolve
this issue.
Now VMware and Hyper-V can be at the same time and have both Docker and WMware at my Windows
Similar question is answered here:

Docker Desktop Installation failed: one prerequisite is not fulfilled on Windows 10

I have a problem when installing a Docker Desktop 2.3.0.3
"Installation failed: one prerequisite is not fullfilled"
Docker Desktop requires Windows 10 Pro/Enterprise (15063+) or Windows 10 Home (19018+).
My Computer System Specification:
OS Name: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
Version: 10.0.10240 Build 10240
RAM: 8Gb
I have tried manually Install Hyper-V and Containers in my Computer, but still failed to install the desktop docker.. Anyone can help me? Im need your help.
You need to install Windows 10 Home 2004 build which was released on May 2020, you can use Microsoft's update assistant to manually get the update if it's not showing up for you on Windows.
Get it here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10
You may want to try Docker Toolbox
Docker Toolbox is an installer for quick setup and launch of a Docker
environment on older Mac and Windows systems that do not meet the
requirements of the new Docker Desktop for Mac and Docker Desktop for
Windows apps.
The actual required Windows version is greater than what it says in the installer GUI.
It might be a typo! and according to Docker this has happened before:
Docker actually requires Windows build xxxxx or greater - we're
working on the typo in the installer gui, but you'll need to update
your Windows to proceed. (Jan 8, 2018)
Just Update Windows and the problem goes away.
If you cannot update the system use choco
Install following the official Сhocolatey documentation: https://chocolatey.org/install
After installation, run the command choco install docker-desktop or follow the official installation documentation https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/docker-desktop

I cannot install Docker Desktop 2.3.0.2 on my Windows Home machine. My machine is up to date

I think those who have this problem are installing Docker Toolbox.
I could not access the installation files.
How do I install Docker Toolbox on Windows Home?
The error I got:
Docker Desktop requires Windows 10 Pro/Enterprise (15063+) or Windows
10 Home (19018+).
Here is what you can follow to install Docker Toolbox on Windows 10 Home. I am running it on my Windows 10 Home Version 1909 (OS build 18363) too and it works like a charm
https://docs.docker.com/toolbox/toolbox_install_windows/
The windows update is not showing in windows update. You can get the latest update from here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

VMWare Workstation cannot run on Windows 10 after recent update to Windows 10

I've Windows 10 Pro system, and use Hyper-V on that system. Due to the needs of device redirection doesn't works well with Hyper-V, I've installed VMWare Workstation 14.
I have to disable Hyper-V to make VMWare Workstation work, at beginning. It worked until last weekend , seems because of the QFE update. I just verified, it was not QFE but Feature update to Windows 10, version 1803 that triggered the problem with VMWare Workstation again.
After Windows update completed (after reboot), I tried to start a VM in VMWare. I get the error dialog complaining about Device/Credential Guard.
Following the instruction in this link: https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2146361, and after the reboot, I get another complaint about incompatibility with Hyper-V.
After reset the Hyper-V selection in Windows Feature or confirm that HyperV is not already removed, and reboot, the first error came back.
It gets in a loop of error complaining about Device Guard and complaining about Hyper-V for VMWare.
Ok, thanks to the answer from communities of VMWare: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/588526
The issue is now gone, by applying the following change:
Disable credential guard by using readiness tool from Microsoft: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=53337, with this command: DG_Readiness_Tool_v3.2.ps1 -disable
Disable Hyper-V by using PowerShell command: Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V
Reboot and accept to boot without CG/DG.
Although I don't like that VMWare cannot work together with device guard from system, I get my VM working for the moment.
1- run cmd as admin
2- run : bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
3- reboot
let me knew if it works please
good luck
here are the few steps for you to solve this issue:
Disable the HvHost service (and any other services with prefix Hyper-V if needed) from windows TaskManager(Ctrl+Alt+Del)
use the tool from the official website
Uncompress the downloaded zip file to your own directory, take C:\DG_Readiness_Tool_v3.5 here for instance.
Run Windows PowerShell as admin, type the following two commands:
cd C:\DG_Readiness_Tool_v3.5
.\DG_Readiness_Tool_v3.5.ps1 -Disable
Reboot

says "I think it's a bug that this cannot be disabled via UI but fortunately it's possible through the registry by setting the following key to 0:"
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard\Scenarios\HypervisorEnforcedCodeIntegrity\Enabled
This worked for me as well [Windows 10 Pro Version 1803(OS Build 17134.112, VMWare Workstation 14 Pro Version 14.1.2]

Is it possible to use Docker without Windows 10 pro?

I need to install Docker on my pc with Windows 10 home. I read that I can only install Docker Toolbox. Is there any way to have the latest Docker version instead without upgrading my pc to windows 10 pro?
Thanks
Update
Docker can now be installed on Windows 10 Home (version 2004 or higher).
Refer to this article for installation instructions
https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install-windows-home/
Old Answer
Docker for Windows requires Hyper-V, and Hyper-V requires Windows 10 Pro (or Windows Server). So no, you can't run Docker without upgrading.
https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install/
README FIRST for Docker Toolbox and Docker Machine users: Docker for Windows requires Microsoft Hyper-V to run. The Docker for Windows installer enables Hyper-V for you, if needed, and restart your machine.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyper-v-on-windows/quick-start/enable-hyper-v
Check Requirements
Windows 10 Enterprise, Professional, or Education
64-bit Processor with Second Level Address Translation (SLAT).
CPU support for VM Monitor Mode Extension (VT-c on Intel CPU's).
Minimum of 4 GB memory.
The Hyper-V role cannot be installed on Windows 10 Home.
You can now install Docker Desktop on Windows Home machines using the WSL 2 backend. Docker Desktop on Windows Home is a full version of Docker Desktop for Linux container development.
https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install-windows-home/
Install Windows 10, version 2004 or higher.
Enable the WSL 2 feature on Windows. For detailed instructions, refer to the Microsoft documentation.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10
The following hardware prerequisites are required to successfully run WSL 2 on Windows 10 Home:
64 bit processor with Second Level Address Translation (SLAT)
4GB system RAM
BIOS-level hardware virtualization support must be enabled in the BIOS settings. For more information, see Virtualization.

Xamarin Android Player Error when attempting to find VirtualBox

I have a clean install of Windows 10. After installing Visual Studio 2015 and Xamarin Bussiness edition I installed Xamarin Android Player x64 and now I receive the following error:
Error when attempting to find VirtualBox please check it's installed and try again.
Xamarin Android Player will now exit.
A solution is referenced in Xamarin fourms stating
Fixed it by adding "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox" to my %PATH%
I am able to open VirtualBox version 4.3.28 r 100309 without issue.
How do I implment this solution or is there a newer solution?
I am running Windows 10 Professional and did a clean installation. Had the same problem. I opened the environment variables and the "VBOX_MSI_INSTALL_PATH" was set to:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\
I changed it to
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox
and it worked for me.. (notice the last backslash)

Add VirtualBox to your system environment PATH variable.
None of the other answers helped me. The Android Player installer was forcing the install of Virtual Box 5.0.4 which was not working on Windows 10 Home (build 14393.51).
What did work for me was to install the latest virtual box (version 5.1.2 r108956) after installing Android player. While I can't start the android devices from Virtual Box's manager, I have had no problems starting them from Android Player or Visual Studio.
Just run as admin (Right hand click on desktop shortcut)
