I have downloaded and installed the newest virtualbox 4.3.20 for my Windows 7 (64-bit OS)
, but when I want to install 64-bit Linux
, the New->Create Virtual Machine only displays 32-bit
option, no 64-bit
option. Could anyone give any clues about this issue? Thanks very much in advance!
1You're sure you installed the
amd64
version, correct? – heavyd – 2015-01-20T06:05:20.207possible duplicate of Running a 64-bit VirtualBox archive on a 32-bit machine

1To remedy this on my Win10 machine I needed to go into Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features and Turn Windows Features on or off. From here I needed to UNCHECK the Hyper-V feature that was installed. After rebooting the machine, the 64bit options were displayed – Malcolm Swaine – 2019-06-21T09:15:04.433
3In addition to disabling the Hyper-V feature in the Windows features, I additionally had to go to the Task Manager and manually stop all running "Hyper-V ..." services and the "HV Host Service" from the "Services" tab. After rebooting, the 64bit options were finally displayed. – KiraMichiru – 2019-08-01T09:18:15.813
