What's Wrong?
Hi,
I get the following error when trying to use Co-Work (Desktop version):
"Virtualization is not available
Claude's workspace requires Hyper-V, but the virtualization service isn't responding. Restart your computer to resolve this."
I have gone through de-bugging with claude and even after following all steps it finally told me to raise as bug report.
I am on windows 10 Professional.
Requesting support, thanks.
What Should Happen?
Claude should allow me to use the Cowork feature.
