    Hello!

    I've ran into a "little" problem while I was trying to create a virtual machine (Windows Server 2012 R2). The reason why I am trying to create the virtual machine is educational (we need to do it thanks to the University I am studying at).

    The problem I am facing is saying that Hyper-V encountered an error while configuring the network. 

    Please note that I already did check the services and the "Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management" is already set to run when Windows starts and it's set to automatic (and obviously is already running at the moment of talking). I am unsure on what to even try at this point because I can't find a possible solution to deal with this. 

    Has anyone had this exact sort of problem where the issue continued even after making sure the VM Management service is running?

    EDIT: One last thing: I did check in my BIOS, and the VM option is enabled.

    Is the host 2012 R2? What task are you performing when the error is generated? Is it when you start the guest? Is the guest connected to a vSwitch?

    The host OS is actually Windows 10. The error occurs while trying to create Windows Server 2012 R2 as a vm in Hyper-V.

    You might try deleting all vSwitches, recreate and try again. It may be the physical network adapter (wireless?) does not play well with hyper-v. Also for desktop hyper-v you might ask over here.

    Hello!

    I am actually unable to even open the Virtual Switch Manager so I can't create / delete vSwitches.

    Might check the system event log for clues. I'd also confirm with the pc maker that desktop hyper-v role is supported.

    I did check and it definitely is supported.
