Fixes attempted (all failed)

  1. Installed Claude Desktop
  2. Enabled Hyper-V via Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Microsoft-Hyper-V -All
  3. Verified vmms and vmcompute services running
  4. Enabled AMD SVM Mode in BIOS (ASUS ROG Strix)
  5. Confirmed HyperVisorPresent = True via Get-ComputerInfo
  6. Full clean reinstall:
  • Uninstalled Claude Desktop
  • Removed residues: $env:APPDATA\Claude, $env:LOCALAPPDATA\Claude, $env:LOCALAPPDATA\AnthropicClaude, $env:LOCALAPPDATA\Packages\Claude_*
  • Restarted Windows
  • Fresh install from claude.ai/download
  1. Verified MSIX installation is correct (not Squirrel) via logs
  2. Confirmed claude_desktop_config.json contains cowork preferences

Actual behavior

yukonSilver platform detection marks configuration as "unsupported" on AMD Ryzen 9800X3D
despite all virtualization requirements being met. Cowork tab never renders.
