What Should Happen?

With all virtualization features enabled (VirtualMachinePlatform, Secure Boot, Intel VT-x), the yukonSilver VM configuration should be classified as "supported" and the Cowork workspace should start normally. The same account and Claude Desktop version (1.1.3918.0) works correctly on another PC (i3-12100, same OS build 26200).

Error Messages/Logs

From cowork_vm_node.log:
[cleanupVMBundleIfUnsupported] yukonSilver not supported (status=unsupported), checking for stale bundle...
[startVM] VM not supported (win32/x64), skipping

UI error: "가상화가 활성화되지 않았습니다" (Virtualization is not enabled)
MCP server connection failures: mcp-registry, Claude in Chrome

The vm_bundles directory is never created — the VM never attempts to boot.

Steps to Reproduce

Windows 11 Pro x64, Build 26200, Intel i5-14600K, 64GB RAM
BIOS: Intel VMX enabled, Secure Boot enabled, CSM disabled
Windows: VirtualMachinePlatform enabled, vmcompute and vmms services running
Install Claude Desktop v1.1.3918.0 from claude.ai/download
Open Cowork tab
Error: "Virtualization is not enabled"
Tested all combinations of Hyper-V/HypervisorPlatform enabled/disabled — all fail
