How to Check If Virtualization is Enabled in windows 11 without bios
To help you out, I decided to cover this blog post in which you will learn the super easy way to find the Virtualization feature status on Windows 11 PC. Here’s what you need to do:
Launch Task Manager on your PC either by pressing CTRL + SHIFT + ESC combination or from the Taskbar.
In the Task Manager, Switch to the Performance tab, and then in the bottom right corner, you will find an entry named Virtualization.
If Virtualization is set to Enable, then this means the Virtualization feature is enabled.
If Virtualization is set to Disable, then this means the Virtualization feature is disabled. And you need to enter bios on your PC and enable it.
In case, the Virtualization entry is missing, then your PC doesn’t support Virtualization and as a result, you won’t be able to enable Hyper-V Manager on your PC.
As simple as that!
