Windows 10: Shared clipboard between Hyper-V VM and Win 10 host

Does Hyper-V support shared clipboard with host. I can't see any way to do it and it's a feature I really miss from Oracle VB.

Sharing WiFi between Win 10 host computer and Hyper-V hosted Windows 10 VM AND connecting to Windows VPN from Host computer

I have a Dell XPS 15 Win 10 Laptop on which I've activated Hyper-V and hosted a Win 10 Virtual Machine. Originally the host machine had a working connection to a work-based Windows based Virtual Private Network that worked perfectly. However, upon setting
up the Hyper-V hosted VM, I found that I had to share the WiFi connection between the host and the VM using a virtual switch adaptor that is "bridged" to the Host's WiFi if I wanted to share folders between the two machines. This had the added benefit of
allowing the VM to access the internet. But alas, as soon as that "bridged" sharing is established, the host machine can no longer connect to the Virtual Private Network! How can I share folders between the host & VM without bridging, or how can I continue
to connect to the VPN in the presence of virtual adapter bridging? I've worked on this issue off and on for months without finding a solution. Thanks to anyone who can provide a solution.

 

Secure file share with between host and hyper-v guest

I have a windows 10 host running hyper-v. I want to share the files that are on the host securely with a hyper-v vm without having to copy the files, i.e. the file share is on the host not the guest.

Current method is to set up a file share on the host and disable authentication for ALL file shares, this is so that I do not need to store the host account
credential on the VM which would be a risk. I then set up a internal virtual switch in hyper-v and disable files sharing protocal on ALL other network interfaces on the host. I not sure this is secure but its defiantly not very elegant for such a seeming
simple problem.

I can see it causeing problems in the future when we need another files share on the host for a differnet reason.

Is there a simpler, less invasive way to do this?

Hi Steven,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that you want to get access to the VM machine on Hyper-V from the login screen of the host PC. However, as you are using Hyper-V and VM, I suggest you to post your query in

TechNet forums, where we have support professionals who are well equipped with the knowledge on Hyper-V and VM’s.

Hope it helps.
