Daniele, thanks for the reply!

just to confirm:


   - I do not have Hyper-V service running on Windows (I checked through 
   control panel-> Turn Windows Features on and off)
   - I do not have Docker installed
   - VT-x is not disabled from BIOS

Well, everything was working all right until this morning. The crush of 
vagrant is of no apparent reason.
The only suspect to me here, is a Windows update which might have broken 
something. Since otherwise I did not install/update anything myself in the 
last few days.


Anyways, nothing helped, and eventually I had to destroy the VM, uninstall 
Oracle Virtual Box, and Vagrant Hashicorp, 
then installed the two, rebooted the computer, and the error with *vagrant 
up* was gone.

This is an utterly undesirable workaround, as a lot of set-up goes away, 
and I need to start from the scratch.

It would be most helpful, if one can point out 

   - what are the (other) potential causes of the aforementioned error ?
   - how to fix the error without uninstall/reinstall ?


Many thanks,
Hayk


Other possible causes are:

   - You have Docker installed (in this case Docker might be the one that 
   enabled the Hyper-V service). 
   - You have VT-x disabled in your machine BIOS (unlikely, but worth a 
   shot if nothing of the above works)
