Run virt-manager on Windows 10

Just did this again tonight, and had 1 more step needed now.

apt-get install -y ssh-askpass-gnome

That is if you need to login. Might not need it if using a password protected ssh key instead.

It’s probably still needed if your key has a pass phrase with it.

You probably need the export DISPLAY=:0 first.

Hi everyone. I got this error when i try to add connection.

Unable to connect to libvirt qemu+ssh://[email protected]/system.

End of file while reading data: nc: unix connect failed: No such file or directory
nc: /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock: No such file or directory: Input/output error

Verify that the 'libvirtd' daemon is running on the remote host.

Hope anyone could help me here. I am kinda new to wsl or even linux base.

Thanks.

sudo gpasswd -a chipprel libvrt

Is the daemon running?

sudo systemctl status libvirtd

You run that command on your KVM server.

How to setup KVM server on windows 10?

I didnt have any KVM server. I try to make everything here on my windows 10. Is it possible?

That's not possible. Windows 10 is an operating system. All production hypervisors are Type-1 by definition so cannot run on top of an operating system.

KVM, Xen, Hyper-V, and ESXi are the four production Type-1 hypervisors and by definition they must run on bare metal, never on top of an OS.

OSes run on top of the hypervisor, not the other way around.

Just don't install Windows 10, install KVM instead. You are approaching the entire concept in an impossible way.
