Hi, the answer """View" menu, try de-selecting "Enhanced Session" .""" works, but you need to do it every single time you open it. To fix that one time and run your VM.

Go to > "Actions" on your HYPER-V Administrator(has to be on the right of the screen).

Then >Hyper-V Configuration. / Then try to find an option that says something related to "Enhanced Session" on the "Server options" after you press that will say "allow or activate Enhanced Session"

Then >Try de-selecting then apply and save.

That way you don't have to do it every time you open your VM.

Hi,

This issue is likely caused because the VM was installed using Generation 1 virtual machine. Try installing the VM as Generation 2 instead.

Note: To install vm as generation 2, you must disable secure boot under Hyper-V VM Settings -> Security -> Secure Boot Enabled (uncheck).

Note: This does not seem to fix issues with XUbuntu 20.04 which still gets black screen. In this case, you will need to boot into single user mode and install linux-azure package.

This is completely untrue and has been untrue since windows server 2019 (possibly 2016 its been a while)

Did you use Ubuntu from Hyper-V gallery? If not, click "quick create VM" and there you have selection of images optimized by Microsoft. I have done it recently and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS works fine

Hi

I have tried that several times, when I was working with it on Sunday that was the solution but then it stopped working. I have removed the VM and build a new one, the same problem.
