# Usage
|
|
|
|
The Vagrant Hyper-V provider is used just like any other provider. Please
|
|
read the general [basic usage](/docs/providers/basic_usage) page for
|
|
providers.
|
|
|
|
The value to use for the `--provider` flag is `hyperv`.
|
|
|
|
Hyper-V also requires that you execute Vagrant with administrative
|
|
privileges. Creating and managing virtual machines with Hyper-V requires
|
|
admin rights. Vagrant will show you an error if it does not have the proper
|
|
permissions.
|
|
|
|
Boxes for Hyper-V can be easily found on
|
|
[HashiCorp's Vagrant Cloud](https://vagrantcloud.com/boxes/search). To get started, you might
|
|
want to try the `hashicorp/bionic64` box.
