See the image for error.

Virtualization is enabled in UEFI. I've run Hyper-V VMs on this install of Windows 10 before. Also, coreinfo64 reports that the processor does not support VT-x but it actually does. It is an Intel Core i5-6200U. WSL gives error 0x80370102 while installing a distro.

    Check that virtualization is enabled in the computer bios for the processor. I would also double check your motherboard supports virtualization

    I fixed this issue myself following these steps:

    1. Open Windows Security.
    2. Go to App & Browser Control.
    3. Go to Exploit protection settings.
    4. Go to Program settings.
    5. Set C:\Windows\System32\vmcompute.exe and C:\Windows\System32\vmwp.exe to 0 system overrides.
    6. Restart these processes.

    Now I am able to run VMs in Hyper-V.
