Docker doesn't run on windows 10 without virtualization enabled in the bios. The computer a purchased last year didn't have support for this feature and there is no way to run docker.

You need Windows 10 Pro to enable Hyper-V and/or WSL2.

Nothing to do with the BIOS, because now pretty much every CPU has the VT-x extension.

VT-x can be disabled via BIOS (and was e.g. on my machine. I cannot guarantee that was the case out-of-the-box).
Out of curiosity, what hardware? I thought pretty much everything since 2015 supported virtual machine extensions.
How is a cpu/motherboard from last year does not support virtualization? What?
