I am experiencing issues with a user profile in Kaspersky Endpoint Security designated as an IT profile. When this profile is assigned, it causes a specific problem with Hyper-V.
Trying to start a virtual machine returns the error 0xC0000022 (Access Denied).
Trying to create a new virtual machine returns the error 0x80070005 (Access Denied).
I have researched these errors through Microsoft documentation and forums, focusing mainly on potential permission issues, but none of the solutions were successful.
To rule out Hyper-V or OS problems, I tested on another computer with Kaspersky Endpoint Security installed but using the Default Profile: I was able to create and start virtual machines without issues.
Assigning the IT profile to this machine caused the same errors. Reverting to the default profile restored Hyper-V functionality.
From the Kaspersky web console, I reviewed the profile settings. I do not see significant differences between the default profile and the IT profile, except:
The IT profile has certain sites enabled in cloud discovery.
Some storage devices are enabled.
Everything else appears identical at first glance.
Has anyone experienced similar behavior? What IT profile settings could be blocking Hyper-V?
I would appreciate your help in resolving this problem 🙂
