I do not have Bit locker on this Windows 10 Home system.  I don’t know what this is. No problems with my computer.  But curious what this is. Anyone out there know or seen this before.

Thank you

Thank you for the reply but have no idea what hyperv is and don’t think I have it.

This may have something to  do with Xbox.  I’ve been getting promts about it and just clicking it away.  I deleted that app years ago.  But today when it popped up and I clicked it away I checked and saw another Microsoft Windows security auditing Code 5061 had been logged.  Two actually.  The audit failures come in pairs.

Don’t understand it but that’s what happened.
