    11  
    12  The HyperV Packer builder is able to create [Hyper-V](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/solutions/virtualization.aspx)
    13  virtual machines and export them.
    14  
    15  Packer currently only support building HyperV machines with an iso:
    16  
    17  -   [hyperv-iso](/docs/builders/hyperv-iso.html) - Starts from
    18      an ISO file, creates a brand new Hyper-V VM, installs an OS,
    19      provisions software within the OS, then exports that machine to create
    20      an image. This is best for people who want to start from scratch.
