I was using Oracle VirtualBox on my work laptop for almost two years until recently when I was asked to uninstall it owing to some licencing issues. Luckily my laptop came installed with Windows 10 which has hyper V installed by default. So, in this article I'll show you how to get hyper V up and running on Windows 10.
