Hi,  
I’m using Windows 10 enterprise.  
I have installed Docker and “VMware 15 Player”. The problem is this 2 programs are not working with same configuration.  
If I enabled “Hyper-v” on Windows, Vmplayer is working well but Docker gives error like below;

Right now Hyper-V enabled. If I disable it, this tima Docker will run fine and Vmplayer will not worok.

Any idea how can i solve this issue?
