This is probably the best work around:

You keep two BCD entries referring to same Windows 10 partition, but one with Hyper-V activated (hypervisorlaunchtype Auto), and another one with Hyper-V suppressed (hypervisorlaunchtype Off). Still you have to reboot the system, but no need to install/uninstall Hyper-V, which is a significant relief.

A proposito, this article uses bcdedit which is a standard Windows command line utility. As an alternative, you can use a GUI application Visual BCD editor

Answer 2

You cannot disable Hyper-V without booting.

• Hyper-V is a type 1 hypervisor. It runs on the bare metal.
• When you run Windows 10 with the Hyper-V enabled, the Windows root OS runs on the Hyper-V.
• When you run Windows 10 with the Hyper-V disabled, the Windows runs on the bare metal without the Hyper-V in the middle.

The only way to "remove" the Hyper-V below the Windows is restarting the machine.

Answer 3

Update to Windows 10 v1801 and April 2018 update and it will work. Windows now supports Android emulation using Hyper-V. Thanks to @JunleLi for the tip.
