Solution

  • Check your memory allocation for your VMs, its looking for 8gigs, and you only have 5 gigs available for that vm. What I was able to do is to use bootcamp to boot to a windows os directly on the mac, and this will give you access to more memory in windows for your vm, but there is a bug where your virtualization in the MacOS will not automatically turn on, so you have to do it manually after you install bootcamp and windows 10. Then you need to make sure your hyper-V is installed in windows, so that requires windows 10 pro.
