When Win10 Home Edition uses a virtual machine to run the virtual machine system, it prompts that VMware is not compatible with Device Guard and needs to disable Device Guard to run.
I found a lot of methods on the Internet, most of them say to disable virtualization-based security in the local group policy, but this mod is not available in Win10 Home Edition;
There are other ways to deal with it by code, but I still can't solve the problem after I tried it.
Finally found that the function can also be disabled by modifying the default value of the registry.
the cause of the problem
- Windows 10 Home Edition does not have the Device Guard module design, which makes conventional solutions unusable at all.
- However, although the home version does not have the management function of this module, it still runs this function by default on the system, so it has caused a conflict with VMware.
You can enter msinfo32.exe in the start menu and check the system information. You will find that Win10 Home Edition will This mod is running by default. As long as we add the corresponding registry value to 0, the mod can be disabled. Other registry values can be added as needed. Methods as below:
Win key + R command enter regedit to enter the registry, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ System \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ DeviceGuard.
Setting the value of this registry setting to 1 enables virtualization-based security, and setting it to 0 disables it. set all to 0
Be sure to restart the computer and then check if it works.
After adding, restart the computer, and check the system information again. You will find that virtualization-based security is not enabled.
