Hyper-V is interesting because it actually causes Windows itself to run on top of the hypervisor. I'm surprised that VirtualBox works at all in that environment.

I think the idea is that Hyper-V was supposed to be what everything uses on Windows, but clearly they didn't make it enticing enough for any virtualization software to switch over. Besides the crappy Hyper-V manager, the only other thing I know of that uses it is WSL2. Too bad Microsoft doesn't care enough to improve the situation.
