Side channel mitigations in VMware Workstation 16 Pro 16.2.3

GnVm — Mon, 12 Sep 2022 16:16:53 GMT

Hi,

By default, Disable side channel mitigations for Hyper-V enabled hosts is unchecked.

Host is Windows 11. I didn’t enable Hyper-V manually.

However, I checked by these ways,

Win+R (as Administrator) > systeminfo

Checked Windows features. In the list, Hyper-V is not showing.

Win+R (as Administrator) > services.msc

In all ways, I didn’t find, Hyper-V is enabled.

However, I see message whenever I turn on a VM. Please let me know its cause.

I found the link https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/79832 and read the reason.

I don’t think anything done as per explanation in the link.

Please let me know, how to figure-out its cause.

With Regards

GnVM
