A while back I wrote detailed instructions on how we managed to get VBox to run on Windows 10 with Hyper-V remaining enabled. This required a little tweaking, but it allowed us to retain all of the Win10 security features offered by Hyper-V.
Recently the VirtualBox team released version 6.1.16 which includes a number of improvements aimed at Windows 10 and "Windows Hypervisor Platform".
You now no longer need any of the tweaks I described earlier! Vanilla VirtualBox 6.1.16 runs on top of Hyper-V and WHP without further issues. SHA2 hashing works well and GCrypt no longer needs to have its acceleration disabled! This makes life so much easier!
