Hyper-V (guest) option seems incompatible with Win11

Hi Enigma,
I just updated to EP 7.70, and it runs much better (with previous versions my software sometimes didn't start). Now it always works as it should, many thanks for your continued work!
One thing I noticed, is that when I check the Hyper-V (guest) option, the protected exe doesn't work on Win11. Even on a standard Win11 home installation (which shouldn't support Hyper-V), it still gives an error and exits. On Win10 the protected exe runs fine. That's not a big deal, as I can simply disable the option to make it compatible with Win11, but maybe this observation helps other developers.
Another problem I encountered on one laptop was that the protected program didn't start, and gave an error that the entry point of an included dll couldn't be found. I could fix that by installing the latest VC redistributable, but don't understand why that happened, as I link everything statically.
Best regards and thanks again!
Robert
