Nested Virtualization with Hyper-V and VMware

[TylerJaacks]

So I'm running Windows 11 Pro on a AMD RYZEN 9 5950X with Hyper-V, Windows Subsystem for Linux 2, Windows Subsystem for Android, Virtual Machine Platform, Windows Hypervisor Platform, and VMware Workstation Pro. I'm trying to enable Virtualization Intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-V/RVI however I get this error "Virtualized AMD-V/RVI is not supported on this platform. Continue without virtualized AMD-V/RVI?". I am being told that I need to disable Hyper-V however I need that for WSL2 and WSA. I was under the assumption that Windows 11 added support for Nested Virtualization for AMD CPUs as it wasn't available in Windows 10. Is there something I am missing about how this works?

While Windows 11 did add nested virt support for Hyper-V, that's only available for Hyper-V VMs – VMWare does not currently support nested virt when using Hyper-V API regardless of the CPU used (and from what I understand, this is a limitation of the API itself).
