Hi all.

Today I went to Settings > ... > Windows Insider Program page.

There I was asked to restart the PC.

After I restarted, I saw that I was left out of the Windows 11 Insider Program.

Now I am asked to install Windows 10 and then rejoin the Windows Insider Program Release Preview Channel.

So I understand now it is just about time to say good-bye to my Insider Colleages on Windows 11.

    My example is from legacy mode Gen1 VM running Windows 10 21H1.

    Here is on guide for using enhanced mode.

    Using Virtual Machine Connection and the Enhanced Session Mode in Windows Server 2012 R2 (techgenix.com)

    EDIT:

    I test with Gen2 VM running Win 11 build 22000.176 (Beta) and Enhanced mode was working OK.

    Here drive C: is VM boot disk and second drive is host device D disk.

    I don't know why, but for me in one VM enhanced session is greyed out and on one, it works. The one on which it works is a Gen 2 VM, setup from scratch.

    If you look again my screenshot I have enable Enhanced mode under "Server" in Hyper-V settings menu.

    Your screenshot show selection under "User" which use enhanced mode automatic, if its enabled on that another setting.

    No need to turn any additional features On/Off.

    Hi Pauli,

    Thank you for your prompt response.

    I looked into my Hyper-V manager settings.

    1- Enhanced Mode session tickbox is already selected. But I don't have local resources available to me. The icon is grayed out.

    2- There are two items in "Turn on/off Windows Features" window that are not selected.

    a- Virtual Machine Platform

    b- Windows Hyper Manager Platform

    Shall I check them one or both in order to be able to see the Local Resources ?

    Thanks for your help.

    To use USB in Hyper-V VM allow Enhanced mode in settings.

    When VM start there is button to toggle between Basic and Enhanced session, this mode allow to use host recources in VM.

    In Hyper-V settings under "User" is also selection to use Enhanced mode automatic, but I don't like that.

    I use that toggle button if I need enhanced mode.
