I'm trying to go through the Getting Started documentation 
at https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/getting-started/index.html and I'm getting 
the following error message:

C:\Users\gm>vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'hyperv' provider...
==> default: Verifying Hyper-V is enabled...
The Hyper-V cmdlets for PowerShell are not available! Vagrant
requires these to control Hyper-V. Please enable them in the
"Windows Features" control panel and try again.

I'm someone who tries very hard to solve problems before asking for help. 
I've spent hours on this error trying to understand it or at least get past 
it, and now I've simply had it with Vagrant. I'm running the 3.0 version of 
PowerShell as recommended on a Windows 7 Professional machine. I've 
searched google up and down, installed and uninstalled different versions 
of the Windows Management Framework, and tried a bunch of powershell 
commands but I'm no closer to understanding what the problem is. Some of 
the information I've come across is implying that Hyper-V is only available 
in the "Windows Features" control panel on a Windows 8 machine (then why 
does Vagrant give those instructions when it can very easily tell what 
version of Windows I'm running).

Does anyone have any experience with handling this error? My impression is 
that the documentation at http://docs.vagrantup.com/ is somewhat light and 
vapid, the kind of documentation that is only useful if everything works 
perfectly.

Thanks,
GM
