To enable virtualization and the Virtual Machine Platform on Windows 10, follow these steps:

  1. Open the BIOS or UEFI settings of your PC.

  2. Look for the option for Virtualization or Intel VT-x/AMD-V and enable it.

  3. Open the Windows Features setting by searching for it in the Start menu or in the Control Panel.

  4. Scroll down to find the option for Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and check the box to enable it.

  5. Scroll further down to find the option for Virtual Machine Platform and check the box to enable it.

  6. Click on OK to save the changes and restart your computer.

Once the computer has restarted, you should be able to use the WSL with virtualization enabled.
