How to Enable Nested VT-X/AMD-V in Virtualbox

Follow the steps given below:

• Firstly open the CMD:

  To begin, launch the Windows Command Line Terminal by entering CMD in the bottom Search field. When it appears, right-click on it and choose Run as Administrator.

  As demonstrated below, this will launch the command line terminal in administrator mode.
• After that go to the Installation folder:

  Then, as seen below, use the cd “Program FilesOracleVirtualBox” command to navigate to the VirtualBox folder. This folder contains all of the VirtualBox executable components, as well as additional necessary files for using VBoxManage.

  Other components can be found in the Oracle VirtualBox documentation.

  C:\>cd "Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox"

• Enable Nested VT-x/AMD-v:

  To enable Nested VT-x/AMD-v, use the syntax:

  VBoxManage modifyvm vm_name> --nested-hw-virt

  As we’re activating it for one of my VMs, Ubuntu, we’ll use the

  VBoxManage modifyvm Ubuntu --nested-hw-virt

  command, as seen below.

  C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage modifyvm Ubuntu --nested-hw-virt on
• Finally, we must validate the modifications by heading to the relevant VM System settings in VirtualBox and ensuring that the check mark next to setup Nested VT-x/AMD-v displays as intended.
