1) Questions and Answers : Windows : LHC not downloading work on new Windows 11 PC (Message 49931)

Hello, in order for virtualbox to execute tasks you need to enter Windows Security or Windows Defender, Device Security, Core Isolation/ deactivate this option/ restart the computer.
You have to have the hardware virtualization options activated in the bios/cpu/.

As long as you have Windows Security or Windows Defender protecting the CPU core (core isolation) it will always indicate that there is no hardware virtualization



Thanks Emmanuel, this resolved the issue I now have Theory and CMS units downloading.

I've not had issues running any of the LHC apps on my previous Win 10 PC.

Setup new PC running Win 11, latest BOINC, latest VBOX + Extensions, checked SVM / AMD-V is supported and enabled in UEFI, Windows Virtual Platform enabled, Hyper-V disabled, WSL installed.

Still not getting tasks for any LHC project, have no work runing for any other projects, have CPU & GPU tasks enabled and cores, memory & disk space all above stated requirements.

Anyone got any idea's on what the issue is as the project isn't giving any error messages just saying no work sent, BOINC startup info below.
