Hyper-V not accessable after enabling it in program and features

When I enabled the feature for Hyper V on one of our Consultant's Windows 8.1 laptop this is the  error we get when we try to open the MMC console app:
MMC Cannot open the file C:\windows\system32\virtmgmt.msc
This may be because the files does not exist, is not an mmc console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may be3 also be because you do not have sufficient access rights to the file.
The user has local admin rights and when I opened up mmc.msc manually and tried to added the hyper V snap-in tool it errored out as well. 
Is there a way to install Hyper-V with our windows 8.1 enterprise disk or is there a way to repair the Hyper-V Installation?
I also tried opening vmconsole.exe and the error we get is "file and directory is corrupted and unreadable".

Hi,
Sorry for the delay, how's everything going now? if issue persists, please try following steps.
Does this issue happen in other PC or other user account? if not, then as kate mentioned before, could be a corrupted user profile, I suggest you follow guide in this link to fix this issue:
(this is for Windows 7, but instruction for Windows 7 is similiar to Windows 8/8.1, in the guide, there's a step to launch MMC, if you're unable to open mmc, you can just run lusrmgr.msc to open "Local users and groups" )
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows/fix-corrupted-user-profile#1TC=windows-7 
Meanwhile, you can also run
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
to fix some corrupted files, you can use a installation disk as a source file, please refer to detailed information in the following link:

  • How To Uninstall Photoshop CC (2014) from Creative Cloud (not listed in Program and Features)

    My membership for Creative Cloud has expired and I want to uninstall Photoshop CC 2014 from my system.
    The ONLY Adobe application listed under 'Program and Features' (Windows 8.1) is the Adobe Creative Cloud, however when I uninstall that all the Adobe Photoshop and Bridge system files remain. When double clicking on photoshop.exe (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit)\photoshop.exe)  I get the Creative Cloud 'Renew your Subscription' screen.  After then rebooting and reinstalling the Creative Cloud Desktop, it shows that Photoshop CC, Photoshop CC (2014), and Bridge CC are installed and are all 'up to date'
    I have searched everywhere on my system for photoshop uninstall files without success.
    Please advise how to delete/uninstall all applications installed by Adobe Creative Cloud when the applications are not listed in the Control Panel 'Programs and Features'

    Thank you for the link. I don't want to sound rude, but I said the programs installed by Creative Cloud Desktop are NOT listed in Windows Control Panel's  'Programs and Features'. The link provided is useless.
    The only Adobe software listed under 'Program and Features' ('Add or Remove Programs' for Windows XP users) is the Creative Cloud Desktop program itself and when uninstalling that, it does NOT uninstall Photoshop CC (2014) or Adobe Bridge CC. When selecting uninstall for Creative Cloud, no Change options are provided to remove Photoshop CC. Uninstalling Creative Cloud Desktop leaves all Photoshop and Bridge system files intact.
    Again, I want to uninstall Photoshop CC that was installed by Creative Cloud Desktop and is NOT listed under Program and Features.

  • Photoshop CC not listed in "Programs and Features" of Windows 8.1

    Adobe Photoshop CC, Adobe Bridge CC and Adobe Extension Manager CC are not listed in Control Panel section "Programs and Features" of Windows 8.1. Only Adobe Creative Cloud Manager is listed. I have to install Photoshop CC because the current update failed with error code U44M1P7. The advice of Support is to remove Photoshop and reinstall it because I have no other options to solve this update error.  Revo Uninstaller Pro and  Ashampoo Uninstaller 5 also do not show Adobe CC programs in their list of programs. What can I do to solve this problem?

  • Power book G4 Leopard 10.5.8. File sharing preference checked but not working after start up until unchecked and the rechecked?

    I hope the title is enough info, please ask. In the mean time I have created an applescript to open preferences/ sharing and uncheck then check the file sharing box. This works but I would obviously prefer it just work normally. I have no corrupt preference files. Perhaps a file is missing? Thank you.

    Greetings Kwnez
    I'm not up to your level of expertise yet. I'm networking and file sharing too, on my Mac Powerbook 1.33 GHz PowerPC G4; OS 10.5.8 Lepoard. At the public library I found by asking the clerk a book Authored by David Pogue. "Mac OS X Leopard the Missing Manual". It (the book) has helped me ask better questions. I'm not saying that your question "
    Power book G4 Leopard 10.5.8. File sharing preference checked but not working after start up until unchecked and the rechecked?
    is hard for me to understand, I went to system preferences and looked at the sharing box. when I clik it it opens up and the first thing I see is my computers name, and under that i see, " Computers on your local network can access your computer at: ...-powerbook-g4-15.local"
    What I'm saying is "Are we on the same Page"

  • I am trying to setup my new time capsule but it is not working. after entering the airport utility and locating the TC, after I tell the program to continue, the unit just disappear and the setup menu says there is an error. Any idea of what is happening?

    I am trying to setup my new time capsule but it is not working. after entering the airport utility and locating the TC, after I tell the program to continue, the unit just disappear from the menu and the setup menu says there is an error. I tried using the wireless connection, and also the cable, but none worked. Any idea of what could be happening?

    What are you setting it up as.. join wireless network .. the very worst setup, it will disappear.. reboot the whole network in order modem. router TC.. clients and it will likely reappear.
    Tell us what network setup you are using..
    If you setup with cable to a computer completely isolated from the network with TC also isolated.. finish the setup of everything you want. .before update.. then plug it into the network. .then restart everything in correct order.. it will work most of the time.

  • Hello... How can I un-activate Lightroom 5?  It also shows up on my Adobe Account and I'd like to have it removed from there.  I am not going to be using the program and I want to give it to someone fully intact.  Thanks... David

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • How do I uninstall Adobe CS6 Design Standard from my machine? Program is not listed in "Programs and Features".

    I have Adobe CS6 Design Standard Installed on my machine and I now have a new machine that I need to put this on. I am trying to uninstall it from my old machine because I need to have the "license" available. However, the adobe programs are not listed in my Windows 7 uninstall dialog box.  I assume I uninstalled something on accident (Adobe Application Manager?) that is causing this issue.
    I have the physical disc for the CS6 Design Standard. Please I need some help understanding how to uninstall the programs...I can still use them and they are simply icons on my desktop but not listed in my "Programs and Features" dialog box.
    I appreciate any assistance you may provide.

    Awesome!  Deactivating worked...I knew there was something - I just didn't know where to look.  Thanks so much.  As far as uninstalling the programs, what you said worked perfectly - a little backwords...but its my own fault! 
    Thanks and i'm soooooo happy that this only took 1/100th of the time that it took to transfer my AutoCAD License!

  • Control Panel shows Flash Player icon but not listed in Programs and Features

    Several sites such as Hulu.com and my university homework page keep telling me that I require Flash Player 10 or higher and to download and install before continuing.  So when I try, this is the message I get:  Flash Player is pre-installed with Internet Explorer in Windows 8.  And then in the box below, it says:  Flash Player is disabled.  I've tried all of the steps to correct this issue, but nothing is working for me.  Also the control panel shows the Flash Player icon, but when I go into the programs and features, Flash Player is not listed at all.  What am I doing wrong??
    OS WINDOWS 8 and IE 8

    Hi,
    Microsoft embeds Flash Player in Internet Explorer on Windows 8.x so you won't see a separate item in Programs and Features for Flash Player ActiveX (the version used by IE).  If you install Flash Player Plug-in for non-IE browsers it'll create an entry in Programs and Features.
    Since you didn't specify which troubleshooting steps you've taken, have you tried the ones listed here Flash Player Issues | Windows 8? Also, when you go to this page, Adobe - Flash Player do you see the Flash animation at the top of the page? If so, what version is detected as being installed in the 'Version Information' widget?  The latest Flash Player version for IE is 15.0.0.167.  If that's not the version listed, please run Windows Update to get the latest version of Internet Explorer or use the link at the bottom of the Flash Player Issues | Windows 8 page.

  • Cannnot uninstall Intellipoint because it is not in Programs and Features Windows 7 64

    I am getting error dialog popups from Intellipoint.  It is complaining about some directories being missing.  But in the registry those directories are not in the application paths under Intellipoint.  I tired to uninstall intellipoint using
    Programs and Features but it is not their nor is it under Windows Features.  I read about installing 8 to replace 7. I found a 8.2 download but installing fails because  "there is a more recent version of intellipoint installed".  
    I also notice the list of program paths is huge; maybe that is why my right mouse click is so slow.
    So how do I get rid of intellipoint if I can't find it in Programs and Features?
