title: Minikube not starting on Windows 10
body: <p>I'm just getting started with kuberneted on Windows 10.
  I downloaded the bits from <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/releases" rel="noreferrer">here</a>.</p>
  
  <p>While attempting to start minikube from powershell:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PS C:\WINDOWS\system32&gt; minikube start --vm-driver=hyperv
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm encountering the error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Starting local Kubernetes v1.8.0 cluster...
  Starting VM...
  E1202 06:53:29.869106    2368 start.go:150] Error starting host: Error starting stopped host: exit status 1.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>While the documentation does not mention any prerequisites to run minikube, is there any setting on Windows 10 that needs to change to make it run?</p>
