The virtualization platform for running virtual machines. Platform tools include the hypervisor, WMI provider, and other necessary virtualization components such as the virtual machine bus (VMbus), virtualization service provider (VSP) and virtual infrastructure driver (VID). Three years back I wrote a blog post on Deploying Windows 8 Virtual Desktop Infrastructure on Windows Server 2012 that has been wildly popular and received lots of blog comments. With the release of Windows 10 anticipated within the next month, I felt it would be appropriate to do an update to this blog post. The virtualization infrastructure driver (VID) is not running. Virtual machine 'MobyLinuxVM' could not be started because the hypervisor is not running (Virtual machine ID.). The following actions may help you resolve the problem: 1) Verify that the processor of the physical computer has a supported version of hardware-assisted virtualization. Virtualization Infrastructure Driver The VID is the main ^glue in the kernel responsible for connecting the Virtual Machine Management Services (VMMS) with the Hyper-V Kernel.

I am trying to use Hyper-V to create a new virtual machine. To test it out I downloaded an Ubuntu 16.04 iso and headed on into the Hyper-V manager to create an instance. I have tried both Quick Create and the New Virtual Machine Wizard, but every time I try to create an instance I'm met with an error. My settings are quite basic, as shown in the following image:

When I attempt to create the instance I am given this very cryptic and non-helpful error:

I have tried all of the following:

  • Disabling and re-enabling Hyper-V windows feature
  • Double checking that virtualization is enabled in my bios
  • Switching between generation 1 and generation 2
  • Defining the OS iso before creation
  • Changing memory size and network settings
  • Running with elevated (admin) privileges
  • Changing the default location to another hard drive
  • Disabling all AV and Firewall protection temporarily
  • I checked to make sure my user is a member of the Hyper-V Administrator group
  • Drivers are up to date
  • Services window indicates that Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management is running (vmms)

I clearly have all Hyper V options enabled in windows features:

A check in my event viewer shows the error but provides no helpful information:

Source: Hyper-V-VMMS ID: 16010 Description: The Operation Failed.

I did notice this in there as well seperately, but I don't know what it means:

I'm not sure if that's the cause and, if it is, how to fix it (I'm pretty new to the whole Hyper-V side of things) Qualcomm atheros ar938x windows 10 driver.

This is a little different from the standard error I see in Stack Overflow and across Google indicating permissions errors. I'm not really sure how to handle this. Any suggestions on what might be going wrong with this?

  • 2x Vega64 cards

A quick SystemInfo check produces the following confirmation that my machine should be able to handle Hyper-V:

EDIT:

After disabling and re-enabling virtualization in my BIOS and turning off my computer completely then turning it back on I'm not getting the VID error anymore, but I am still unable to create virtual machines

Posible here is a solutuion - https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/b810795c-a078-49a8-b584-9ac1e1b896d1/hyperv-failed-to-create-a-new-virtual-machine-a-required-privilege-is-not-held-by-the-client?forum=winserverhyperv

Worst Swift Driver Vid

If you change the default setting for “Create Symbolic Link” on a Hyper-V Server you can get this error. This is due to the Virtual machines needing this right in order to link to the VHA storage areas. By default, when you install the Hyper-V role, a special group called 'virtual machines' is created and given the “Create Symbolic Link” right. If you change this right with say a GPO (following a misguided STIG maybe?) you will not be able to create virtual machines and will get the above error. This group contains all the virtual machine Service SIDs.

Look here for more info; http://www.virtualizationadmin.com/articles-tutorials/microsoft-hyper-v-articles/storage-management/hyper-v-file-storage-permissions.html Check your restrictive policies GPO for this setting.

The Virtualization Infrastructure Driver (vid) Is Not Running

On a lark I changed the default folder for virtual hard disk files from F:Hyper-V VMsVirtual Hard Disks to C:Hyper-V VMsVirtual Hard Disks and the default folder for virtual machine configuration files from F:Hyper-V VMsVirtual Machines to C:Hyper-V VMsVirtual Machines.

After I did this I was able to create a VM. After I tested this I set the paths back to their original location on F: and tried again and was able to successfully create VM's. I'm guessing that Hyper-V was somehow confused internally.
