<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Cowork has <strong>never worked</strong> on this system. The <code class="bg-text-200/5 border border-0.5 border-border-300 text-danger-000 whitespace-pre-wrap rounded-[0.4rem] px-1 py-px text-[0.9rem]">yukonSilver</code> platform detection has marked this system as <strong>unsupported</strong> since <strong>January 23, 2026</strong> — spanning the older Squirrel-based installer (v1.1.673) through the current MSIX package (v1.1.7714). This is not a regression; the detection has been incorrect across every version of Claude Desktop that has included the yukonSilver check.</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">The CoworkVMService crashes immediately on startup with "Incorrect function" (exit code 66). The VM never attempts to boot, no HNS network is created, and no virtual adapter is provisioned.</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Regular Chat mode works perfectly. Only Cowork is affected.</p>

<li class="whitespace-normal break-words pl-2">Ensure WSL2, Virtual Machine Platform, and Windows Hypervisor Platform are all enabled</li>

<h2 class="text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold">Expected Behavior</h2>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Cowork workspace should start successfully. The system has all required virtualization features enabled (WSL2, Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform) and <code class="bg-text-200/5 border border-0.5 border-border-300 text-danger-000 whitespace-pre-wrap rounded-[0.4rem] px-1 py-px text-[0.9rem]">vmcompute</code> is running.</p>
<h2 class="text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold">Actual Behavior</h2>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">The CoworkVMService installs but immediately crashes every time it starts. The UI shows:</p>
<blockquote class="ml-2 border-l-4 border-border-300/10 pl-4 text-text-300">
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]"><strong>Failed to start Claude's workspace</strong>
VM service not running. The service failed to start.
Restarting Claude or your computer sometimes resolves this. If it persists, you can reinstall the workspace.</p>
</blockquote>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]">Clicking "reinstall the workspace" does not resolve the issue — the VM bundle is re-downloaded but the service still crashes.</p>

This is <strong>not a regression</strong> — the detection has been wrong on this system since January 23, 2026, across both the Squirrel-based installer (v1.1.673) and the current MSIX package (v1.1.7714). Every version of Claude Desktop that has included the yukonSilver check has failed on this hardware.</p>
