.
Close Hyper-V using the command line, open cmd with super user privileges, and execute the command:

bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off.

After actual testing, after the setting is successful and restarted, it does not work.

Execute gpedit.msc, open the "Local Group Policy Editor", enter "Local Computer Policy", "Computer Configuration", "Administrative Templates", "System", "Device Guard", "Turn on virtualization-based security", and Its setting is disabled.

b. Even if gpedit.msc is installed successfully, there is no "Device Guard" after opening it. For example, mine is as follows:

In summary, no matter disabling the Hyper-V function, command line, local group policy, or registry, it has no effect.
