As of v3.0.0, the Hyper-V box was removed, so the Hyper-V provider no longer works as is.
Converting the Virtualbox image to Hyper-V is possible, but is an undocumented, potentially painful process.

Given that Virtualbox does not fully work when Hyper-V is enabled (which includes WSL 2, Windows Sandbox, and Credential/Device Guard), having a Hyper-V box would be useful and would reduce testing friction for some maintainers.

We've confirmed in the past that we will add a Hyper-V image but it isn't something we're working on just now.

(chocolatey-community#74) Adjust Hyper-V provider config
14c9d87 
The hyper-v box can potentially have the max memory set lower than the
desired amount of memory in the test environment Vagrantfile. Overring
the max memory with `nil` enables any memory amount to be used.

In testing, it also took longer than expected to for the box to get an
IP address, and so the IP Address Timeout has been increased to give
more time for this step to complete.

(chocolatey-community#74) Update READEME with Hyper-V info
fe345db 
Add a section on using Hyper-V instead of VirtualBox, including a
recommendation to prefer VirtualBox and linking to known limitations.

This also updates the table of contents to include the newly added
section as well as two sections added in a previous commit that were
not added to the list.
