Check if Second Level Address Translation (SLAT) is installed
There are different instructions online to show that you have Second Level Address Translation (SLAT) enabled as a dependency to install WSL 2 and Docker. The simplest way is to run "systeminfo.exe" in various Windows OS versions. How can I run this command without the command prompt from closing? When I run this, a bunch of text appears really quick and exits.
Do Intel® Processors Support Second Level Address Translation (SLAT)?
- Press the Windows* key and type command prompt.
- Type systeminfo.exe.
- Check the Hyper-V Requirements section.
Also, does the "CoreInfo" program that Microsoft developed below give the exact same answer? I like to avoid installations for something as simple as this, so I'd rather not install CoreInfo.
