VMware Workstation and Hyper-V are not compatible. Remove the Hyper-V role from the system before running VMware Workstation.

Recently, I migrated a Windows 10 Virtual Machine, to a host laptop also running Windows 10, and VMware Workstation 12.   When I attempt to power on the VM, I get an error popup that states:  VMware Workstation and Hyper-V are not compatible. Remove the Hyper-V role from the system before running VMware Workstation.

At one point I must have turned on Hyper-V within the Windows 10 Virtual Machine.  But I am unable to remove the role, because I must power on to do so, and VMware Workstation is not allowing the VM to power up. 

Anyone know how I may resolve this issue?

Thanks,
