OS : Windows 11 Home edition

Run the start command with debugging:

crc start --log-level debug

However, I think it is trying to use Hyper-V to create a VM and that is not part of Home edition.

Thanks for the update. i reinstalled with Windows 11 PRO and it started working. But now i am getting new error while deploying nginx deployment via web-console. pods are going in crashlookback state.
