Hey everyone! I've got a bit of a situation going on with my Windows 11 setup. I've been gaming since 2024, and for the first time, I'm seeing a popup about HVCI (Hypervisor-protected Code Integrity) being enabled. So, I wanted to check my security features, and it looks like I don't meet the requirements for Core Isolation and some other features. I've followed a popular tutorial from BuildAPC, but it hasn't worked for me.
Here's what I've got: I have TPM 2.0 enabled and Secure Boot is on in the BIOS. I checked the msinfo32 thing, and while I'm not super tech-savvy (just following online guides), here are my details:
- **Motherboard:** B760M DS3H DDR4 Gigabyte
- **Processor:** Intel i3 12100F
I've got DEP enabled, UEFI mode on, and IOMMU/VT-d active, but nothing shows up in my device security tab. Interestingly, instead of SVM, it appears as VMX, and that's enabled too. I'm looking for any potential fixes or remedies to get Core Isolation up and running. Thanks!

What happens when you try to enable Core Isolation? Are you getting any specific error messages?
It sounds like you're having trouble accessing the security features. Can you show a screenshot of the Security tab? It usually looks like this (link provided). Just remember to check your secure boot settings too; I forgot mine and it caused issues too!
Here's a screenshot from my Security menu. The option for Core Isolation is blank, and searching for it gives me 'not available' messages. I didn’t notice this before since it never was a problem for me!
