As for disabling VBS/Hyper-V thingies, it has been discussed here many times. Try these instruction or if they don't work, follow those threads for more information.
--------------
In this guide, I will explain how to disable Hyper-V in Windows and use Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI in any virtualization program, such as VirtualBox or VMware (in my case). The final step (6) is the key to disabling it in version 24H2, which has a bug that prevents it from being disabled.
Step 1: Stop Any Currently Running Hyper-V Services
- Click on the Start menu.
- Type services (without quotes) and press [ENTER].
- In the Services window, browse through the list and look for any services that include "Hyper-V" (e.g., "HV Host Service").
- If any of these services are running, right-click on them and select Stop.
- Close the Services window.
Step 2: Ensure Hyper-V and Related Features Are Not Installed
- Click on the Start menu.
- Type Features (without quotes) and select "Turn Windows Features on or off".
- In the Windows Features window, ensure the following options are unchecked:
- Hyper-V (including all sub-items).
- Windows Hypervisor Platform.
- Linux subsystem for windows
- Click OK and wait for the changes to apply.
- Restart your computer if prompted.
Step 3: Disable "hypervisorlaunchtype"
- Click on the Start menu.
- Type powershell (without quotes), right-click on Windows PowerShell, and select Run as administrator.
- In the PowerShell window, type the following command and press [ENTER]:
- bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
- Close the PowerShell window.
Step 4: Disable Device Guard (If Applicable)
Note:
- This step may not apply to all versions of Windows.
- The Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc) is not available in Windows 11 Home.
- Click on the Start menu.
- Type gpedit.msc (without quotes) and press [ENTER].
- In the Group Policy Editor, navigate to:
- Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Device Guard
- Double-click on "Turn on Virtualization Based Security".
- Select Disabled and click OK.
Step 5: Disable "Memory Integrity" in Core Isolation
- Click on the Start menu.
- Type core isolation (without quotes) and press [ENTER].
- In the Core Isolation window, ensure that "Memory Integrity" is turned Off.
- Close the window.
Step 6: Mandatory step for Windows 11 24H2
Windows 11 24H2 has a known issue where Hyper-V might still interfere even after following the above steps. To resolve this, you'll need to use the Microsoft Device Guard and Credential Guard Hardware Readiness Tool:
- Download the Device Guard and Credential Guard hardware readiness tool from Microsoft.
- Extract the downloaded ZIP file.
- Use the tool to disable Device Guard and Credential Guard:
- Open PowerShell window as an administrator.
- Navigate to the folder where you extracted the tool.
- Firs run this command to get Execution Policy:
- Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope Process
- Now run the script with the -disable parameter to disable Device and Credential Guard
- DG_Readiness_Tool_v3.6.ps1 -Disable
- Reboot your computer.
- During the boot process, Windows will ask you to confirm the changes. Follow the on-screen instructions to proceed (Just press F3).
Note: Disabling Device Guard and Credential Guard will temporarily disable your Windows Hello PIN. However, you can re-enable it later without any issues.
Step 7: Confirm Hyper-V is Fully Disabled
- After rebooting, open a PowerShell window as an administrator.
- Run the following command to ensure Hyper-V is fully disabled:
- bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
- Reboot your computer again.
Additional Notes
This method worked for me on Windows 11 24H2 for VMware Workstation and Virtualbox After completing these steps. I hope this actually helps someone, because I almost lost my mind trying to fix this
I am not responsible if someone breaks their system or creates a security breach. I'm just trying to help, something Microsoft doesn't do.
If you need assistance, consider asking ChatGPT, Deepseek, or similar tools, as I'm not an IT professional affiliated with Microsoft.
I can't believe that after all this time, this error and many others are still present in Windows 11 24H2, and they haven't released an update to fix it yet. It's disappointing how lazy the developers at Microsoft are becoming. They haven't made any major changes to the modern architecture of Windows since Windows 7, and yet there are still such nonsensical bugs like this one.

At least reply you reply to other threads pretty fast, but not this one. Why? If you can't solve the problem, please tell me so I can remove GNOME. I'm tired of this now.

Your logs still says hyper-V enabled...
Try the bcdedit solution mentioned here and check in the vmware.log if it still has the line, if so you still have hyper-V enabled.
vmx IOPL_Init: Hyper-V detected by CPUID
In order to turn off Hyper-V mode, run the following command at the host in windows command-line with Administrator privileges:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off
Reboot the system to activate your changes.
If you want to go back to Hyper-V mode again, then you can enable it like this:
bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype auto

I want you to check again. This time, I turned off the Windows Subsystem for Linux; previously, I didn't. Someone in the comment section told me to do this. These are the new long files, but please reply this time. I am tired of this. Why can't you take this to the senior developer or some other people?

VMX does not think it's turned off. I don't know why that would be, may be you needed reboot. Please refer to various threads here about turning off hyper-V. I am afraid I am not much of help in that area.

We are still detecting hyper-V is enabled on the host. From vmware.log
"2025-06-28T04:27:13.960Z In(05) vmx IOPL_Init: Hyper-V detected by CPUID"
You have to disable it first on windows.

Unfortunately, we can't live debug it. We can only look at the logs and see what might be going wrong. If you can send me the logs (vmware.log and mksSandbox.log) after you disabled Hyper-V then I can take a look again. It will also be helpful to know if an earlier version of workstation like 17.5.2 still works better as if that also is sluggish it might some windows update on your host which has caused this problem.

Hi, I've tried everything you told me to do, but there's still no solution. How about we set up a TeamViewer session or something similar? That would be great because it would be easier for me to explain properly to you or the team. I'm not using it for 3D rendering I'm using Gnome in Kali Linux. Gnome without animations feels totally trash, which is why I'm using this feature. This problem never showed up until a year ago; I don't know what happened suddenly.

It's possible that the slowness you are experiencing is because of hyper-v is enabled. Can you please turn it off and try again? Search for "Turn windows feature on or off" in settings and then uncheck "hyper-V". Unrelated to that, keep mks.vk.forceDevice=NVIDIA on as that's what you want to use for 3d rendering.

I took a look at the log file and I can see now you are running on the NVIDIA gpu. I don't know what config option you tried before (and they might not have been effective because you were not running on the NVIDIA gpu), can you try the following config options.
- Keep mks.vk.forceDevice=NVIDIA and add mks.enableDX12Presentation=FALSE see if things improve.
- Remove mks.vk.forceDevice=NVIDIA and add mks.vk.forceDevice=AMD, check if things are better. Note this will use the integrated AMD graphics instead of NVIDIA
I see a lot of errors unrelated to graphics in the vmware.log especially a bunch of SATA errors which might be what causing the problem not graphics but let's do the above experiements first.

They should be in the vm directory. You should power down the VM and then look for vmware.log and mksSandbox.log in the VM folder.

That link isn't the public video, you didn't assign correct permission to it, I cant download it. You need to Copy link, then immediately click Manage access and change Restricted to Anyone can see or download, ok you can do assign perms if I request it, like I did.
But there is no video inside 🤠what are you talking about, there is only your Kali VM without vmdk file and lot of log files, but no video.
I have already used to this, its long time it started, I have somehow adjusted to it, am using vmware 20 years and there was never problems like this, it worked always perfectly, now there is so many problems about desktop rendering, eg. also with vmware-kvm.exe, switching to VM renders partial or black screen in 5% of cases since this problem started, it all relates. Before, eg. vmware-kvm never failed to switch and render desktop, even once, it worked at 100% before. Even if its a little better now, its still not the same like before.
Reupload that video, just right click it, Copy link, and set permission to Any can see it instead of Restricted.

I couldnt login to broadcome my old account, I had to create a new one.
🤠you dont need to create a new thread, everything is already here, it will help nothing, they see there is a problem, they just don't fix it, they investing probably to other things, as you can see migration to broadcome was the primary thing for them and not 3d rendering, its normal.
The problem is a little better after last mesa updates right? I doesn't crash so often, you are able to make more actions, but it freezes anyway, its unusable right? Do you have it the same? For me even on Win11 as guest there are similar problems, but they are so rare that I can normally work with Win11 guest, but frames are dropping rapidly to 3-5fps, its laggy sometime, it was not like so in eg. workstation 15-16, or in previous win10 or nvidia drivers, I don't know what is causing that.

Are you really that guy 😅 I was sending you a message to invite you here, they moved everything from vmware domain to broadcom, there was a total mess, that login system on Broadcom is ****, I have problems to login here, always stuck 10mins trying to log in.
Yes, the problem still persist to me, its I don't know how long, its more than a year it started, still no fix to that, I still didn't tried to disable hardware accelerated gpu scheduling in Windows, as I don't like restarts, there is a chance it will work better, but maybe I tried it already even don't remember that, what I know is that its still doesn't work. ðŸ¤

I finally found this thread, old VMware forum was migrated to Boradcom without any redirects, it took months to index this by google bot.
It's ~1 year 3D acceleration stopped working, I would like to see it fixed.
I tried
mks.enableDX12Renderer = "FALSE"
mks.enableGLRenderer = "TRUE"
But it didn't help, the same problem still.
This problem started after some upgrade to Mesa 24.x, I know it because there were older mesa drivers for some time in my distro so I pinned them to have 3D accel working, but they were removed/deprecated and mesa 24 is the only option since then.
It looks like the problem already starts during booting during passing framebuffers from UEFI vmwgfxdrmfb to vmwgfx drivers because it stops logging kernel messages to the console around logged vmwgfxdrmfb messages and then it directly shows sddm login page.
I'm attaching a screenshot where it stops logging these kernel messages. If 3D accel is disabled it normally continues logging, for me the next messages are about OpenRC.
