Not everyone can get rid of anything Hyper-V as other stuff may require
Hyper-V.

There has been several with problems using VirtualBox on Windows
due to Hyper-V conflict.

And with the VMWare workstation being free even for commercial use now,
then I see VirtualBox as an unnecessary complication.

(VirtualBox on Linux apparently gives different problems, but there are
KVM and various derivatives there)
