VirtualBox

Architecture : AMD Ryzen

Platform issue : Microsoft Windows 10 ( status = solved , solution = reliable )

Summary :

Virtualbox has issues with Microsoft Virtualisation Based Security and/or Hyper-V on Windows 10

A proven solution

This may not be the best solution or overkill, but it works reliably.

Disable Virtualisation Based Security
    gpedit.msc > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > 
    Device Guard > Enable Virtualisation Based Security ( must be set to disabled) )

Disable the boot loader option hypervisorlaunchtype
    run cmd as adminstrator and execute 
    bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off

Remove Anything Hyper-V from Programs and Features by unchecking Hyper-V under Windows features.

Note this DOES lower security for features offered by "Windows Defender Application Guard (WDAG)" , "Virtualization Based Security (VBS)" and related advanced security features in Microsoft Windows 10.

Notable Issues

  • 64 bit operating system options are not available under settings for any VM, only 32 bit is listed

Notable configuration issue indicator

  • Despite ADM SVM enabled in the BIOS there is an error reporting such is not enabled or available

    AMD-V is not available (VERR_SVM_NO_SVM).

    Resultcode: E_FAIL (0x80004005)

    Component: ConsoleWrap

    Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
