The hypervisor bypass requires you to give a third-party program the highest level of security access your operating system has. The kind of access you have to reboot your system to grant because it can't be done while the OS's security system is currently running. It is extremely inadvisable to do this ever, for any reason, unless you are an educated expert or the system is disposable.

    You should read the article.

    Version 3 of the bypass only requires you disable core isolation.

    Still increasing your attack surface, but dramatically less than the earlier method that you're referencing.

    I used to roll my eyes at the classic parental "if your friends jumped off a bridge would you jump too?" and how obviously stupid the idea was.

    Used to.

    That only works on kids who've yet to experience their first bridge jump, frankly. As soon as I found out how to do it properly, that adage was as hollow & out-of-touch as "finish your plate", "boys'll be boys", "do as I say", et al.
