📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses issues with enabling and managing Hyper-V and virtual switches on Windows 10. The original poster encounters problems creating virtual switches, which leads to network interfaces disappearing after attempting to fix the issue, and later seeks a way to toggle Hyper-V without restarting the computer. The responses suggest using command-line tools like `netcfg -d` and note that Hyper-V and VMware can usually run simultaneously, but one user recommends a dual-boot setup as a reliable workaround for switching between Hyper-V and VMware. Overall, the sentiment indicates troubleshooting challenges with virtual networking and hypervisor management.

Followed your advice and not only it didn't help but also all my wireless and ethernet interfaces are gone.
How to restore them back?

Yes I did that but nothing was restored.
Reinstalled OS, installed VMware Workstation and then turned on Hyper-V feature. After that, virtual switches are created successfully. I have no idea what was that.
Just one question. I need periodically switch between Hyper-V and VMware Workstation so I turned off hypervisor using bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off command. However, when I need to switch to Hyper-V I get the error that says that hypervisor is not enabled. So, I'm forced to use bcdedit /set hypervisorlaunchtype off command and restart my computer entirely.
Is there any other way to solve this issue without restarting computer?
Thank you.

use a dual boot with hyper-v on one side and vmware on the other... they really don't play nice otherwise.
