Feature Request: Automatically enable virtualization

Reported by: JEB Owned by:

Keywords: virtualization, vt-x, AMD-v, bios Cc:
Guest type: all Host type: other

Description

Some of us users either do not have the necessary virtualization components for Virtualbox running on our computers, or do not know how to enable them. Why not have Virtualbox check during install and attempt to enable VT-X or AMD-v as needed from the GUI?

Some manufacturers take advantage of a software way to enable hardware virtualization anyway: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31581854/enabling-intel-virtualization-vt-x-without-option-in-bios https://software.intel.com/en-us/android/articles/intel-hardware-accelerated-execution-manager
