Bluestacks does not run even though I disabled Hyper-V

Question

I tried disabling Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), Windows Defender Application Guard, and Hyper-V, but even THAT didn't work. I always disable virtualization to run Bluestacks, but now I need to enable virtualization for the new Bluestacks N version. I really want it, but Bluestacks keep saying that Hyper-V is enabled on my system and I have to review the FAQ to disable it. I also set hypervisorlaunchtype to off using bcdedit.

EDIT: Even Google's Android AVD manager reports the same thing!

Answer 1

Did you enable the Memory Integrity option in the Core Isolation menu on Windows Defender? This option is available on Windows 1709 and later. Try disabling it. Here's the pic:

And if you see that you can't disable it because of the lack of administrator rights, even though you're the owner of the administrator account, go to this registry directory in regedit:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceGuard\Scenarios\HypervisorEnforcedCodeIntegrity

Then go to the right side pane, double click on the Enabled, change its value data from 1 to 0 and click OK to save changes.

Hope this helps.
