Host Windows 11 Pro, (Windows 11 Insider Canary Hyper-V VM )
I'm having some issues with running Hyper-V in Enhanced mode. I have successfully set up a Gen 2 VM under Win 10 21H1 (Build 19043.1110) and have successfully installed and can run Win 11 21H2 (Build 22000.100) in that VM. I can run the VM in either Basic or Enhanced mode, but when I first spawn the VM in Enhanced mode I don't get the popup asking me what resources I want to select. In the Enhanced VM the only "resource" I get from the host is "Remote Audio" I don't see any other hardware resources from the host such as USB drives etc. I've checked all the Host Hyper V settings and have "Enhanced session mode policy" enabled on the server and "Enhanced session mode" enabled for the user. I also have all the boxes checked for the guest integration services to include guest services. A check of the device manager in the host shows a plethora of hardware available including dual monitors, bluetooth, DVD drive, Printer, Sound and video controllers, and numerouse USB devices (controllers, hubs etc). None of these are found in the device manager of the guest VM. From the documentation it sounds like many of these hardware devices are mapped into the host from the VM in the initial popup when connecting to the enhanced VM, but that never pops up to select them so I'm guessing that's why they aren't showing up in the Guest VM.

Anyone have any ideas of how to fix this?

You are correct, the options are in the initial popup, hidden several layers down in More options > Local Resources > More > Drives.

Hyper-V enhanced session - local resources.PNG


Once you have connected with an Enhanced Session I have found no reliable way to get that initial popup to reappear, though it has done so (more by luck than judgment) on some of my VMs. Perhaps @Kari knows a reliable way to get it to reappear?

Meanwhile, there are alternative ways to transfer files that don't need an enhanced session.

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update.

I think you can simply remove the Enhanced session support from the VM properties with the VM shut down, then power cycle the VM (this may not be actually necessary) and add it back and you will get the popup again as Bree shows in the screenshot.

Not so sure if just simply disabling Enhanced session while the VM is running and then enabling it again will work or not.

I'll try to see if I can force it to show without having to go through so many steps.

No, well not a reliable fix. I tried that first to generate a screenshot - and failed. Fortunately I still had another VM where it still did pop up. As I said, once you have set up the enhanced session I know of no reliable way to go back to that popup.

I'm installing in a VM now - I have a small bit of time before I have to leave. I know there is a way I could reliably get that setting to show again.

Post back with results.

I have the hidden folder that stores the config files pinned to the shortcuts, and I just delete the relevant config, then next time you run it, it pops up. Also, enhanced mode doesn't coexist well with Windows Hello.

1.) If the Enhanced Mode settings are not saved:

To get the Enhanced Mode (Remote Desktop) dialog shown again, simply close the VMConnect (virtual machine) window, and reopen it. The dialog will be shown.

In screenshot the "correct" way, but at least in my W11 build 22000.100, when in Enhanced Mode, to change settings / re-open Enhanced Mode dialog will not work. Closing and reopening VMConnect window is an easy workaround:

2.) If the Enhanced Mode settings are saved:

You can save the Enhanced Mode settings:

2021-07-30_21h52_06.png

If saved, Hyper-V creates a configuration file in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Hyper-V\Client\1.0 folder. Unfortunately, these config files are labelled vmconnect.rdp.%virtual machine hexadecimal ID%.config, so if you have saved settings for multiple virtual machines, it requires a bit detective work to find out which config file belongs to which VM:

2021-07-30_21h54_57.png


The config files can be opened and edited in Notepad. Here's a typical one:

XML:

            <value>True</value>
        </setting>
    </Microsoft.Virtualization.Client.RdpOptions>
</configuration>

Simply closing the VMConnect window, and deleting respective config file, will show the dialog next time VM is opened (and started) in VMConnect window.

Thanks all, Cereberus' and Kari's suggestion worked like a charm. Fortunately I had only one VM, so finding the correct config file was easy.

Thanks all, Cereberus' and Kari's suggestion worked like a charm. Fortunately I had only one VM, so finding the correct config file was easy.
If you pin the config folder to quick access, you can still see files even though the actual folder is normally hidden. Re. name, look at @Kari's post, and look for this string in the cfg file

<setting name="VmName" type="System.String">
<value>Windows 11 PRO x64 (activated)</value>

I enter the following into cmd (admin) to bring up the settings box. I learned the trick from someone on the W10 sister forum, but don't remember who.
