The Latitude has been reverted to W10 Pro but I now have something newer and potentially better. But can it run Hyper-V?

I just discovered (here: https://www.itechtics.com/enable-hyp...ndows-10-home/ ) that it's possible to install Hyper-V on Windows 10 Home.

So just for amusement I thought I'd try it on Windows 11 as the newer system is a Dell XPS13 compact laptop that I've upgraded to Windows 11 Home. Seems to have worked though no VMs are installed yet.

As it's small but reasonably good and only 5 years old it's potentially a handy unit for VCDS. If I can put Bentley and Elsawin on it too using Hyper-V that's a big bonus.
It will be much better than the 10yo Dell that this thread is about.
