New Solution to Fix Gameloop Hyper-V Incompatibility (100% Working)

⚠️ The Problem

When you try to open GameLoop, you may see this frustrating error:

Incompatible Hyper-V is running

This happens when Windows detects certain virtualization features like Hyper-V or Windows Hypervisor Platform, which prevent GameLoop from accessing your computer’s hardware.

The issue is especially common in Windows 11 25H2, where Hyper-V becomes more tightly integrated into the system, breaking compatibility with emulators such as GameLoop, LDPlayer, and BlueStacks.

🧠 Before You Begin — Check Your Windows Version

Before trying any fix, first check which version of Windows 11 you are using.

▶️ How to Check:

1. Press Win + R
2. Type:

winver

3. Press Enter

You’ll see a small window showing your Windows version (for example: Version 22H2 or 25H2).

🩻 Solution 1 — (For All Versions Except 25H2)

If your version is not 25H2, try this first.
This fix works perfectly on most versions like Windows 11 24H2 and older builds.

✅ Solution: Turn OFF the Two Problematic Features

1. Press Win + S and search for:
   Turn Windows features on or off

2. Make sure Hyper-V is enabled.

3. Uncheck these two options only:

• Virtual Machine Platform ❌
• Windows Hypervisor Platform ❌

4. Click OK, then Restart your computer.

Now open GameLoop again — in most Windows versions, the emulator should start normally with no “Incompatible Hyper-V” error.

💡 Tip: Even if the boxes are already unchecked, toggle them once to make sure Windows completely deactivates them.

⚠️ Solution 2 — For Windows 11 25H2 (Or If Solution 1 Doesn’t Work)

If your system is running Windows 11 25H2, the above fix will not work.
This version has deeper Hyper-V integration that cannot be fully disabled from “Windows Features”.

After many tests, I confirmed that the only reliable solution is to downgrade to Windows 11 Pro 22H2, where GameLoop works perfectly.

💾 Step 2 — Downgrade to Windows 11 Pro 22H2

🧭 Follow these steps:

1. Backup your data (documents, photos, etc.).
2. Download Windows 11 Pro 22H2 ISO from this trusted source:
   👉 Windows 11 Pro 22H2 (Archive.org)
3. Use Rufus to create a bootable USB.
4. Boot from the USB and reinstall Windows (clean installation recommended).
5. After installation, do not enable any virtualization or Hyper-V features manually.

Once installed, GameLoop will work instantly — without any “Incompatible Hyper-V” message or crashes.

🧩 Why This Fix Works

Based on my research and tests across multiple setups:

Setting	Status
Hyper-V (BIOS)	✅ ON
Hyper-V Platform	✅ ON
Hyper-V Management Tools	✅ ON
Virtual Machine Platform	❌ OFF
Windows Hypervisor Platform	❌ OFF

This configuration works perfectly on Windows 11 24H2 or older builds, but fails on 25H2.
That’s why downgrading is currently the only 100% stable solution for GameLoop in 2025.

🧰 Verify Hyper-V Status (Optional)

To check if Hyper-V is active on your system:

1. Open PowerShell as Administrator
2. Type:

systeminfo | find "Hyper-V"
