Answer 1

It is not currently possible for users to properly create the Hyper-V Administrators group.

Via Twitter I reached out to Ben Armstrong (@VirtualPCGuy) a Principle Program Manager at Microsoft who works on the Hyper-V development team. He did some research on my question with this followup.

1. Jeff, this is being looked at now. Do not know the root cause.
2. Summary is: some methods for installing Windows 10 mean the HV admin group is missing.
3. Unfortunately, it is a "special" group - so the user cannot recreate it.
4. Right now you can: 1) reinstall Win 10 or 2) wait for a fix (date undetermined)
