I just migrated from VMWare to Hyper-V because of Docker.

Then I noticed I cannot copy the text inside Hyper-V VM & paste this text to workstation text editor (outside of Hyper-V VM)?

So, I did the google search & most answer I found are, the other way around (workstation to hyper-v) but not this way I mentioned above.

So, how does this work? Suggested Google links?

[My Workstation]

Windows 10 Pro for Workstations, Version (??, 02/12/2020 Windows Update)
Hyper-V Manager Version 10.0.18362.1

[Hyper-V VM #1] - Doesnt Work

Windows 7

[Hyper-V VM #2] - Works

Windows 10, Version (02/2020 Windows Update)

Do you have enhanced mode enabled?

Before you connect, click on "Show Options":

Enhanced Mode supports fully integrated, bidirectional (host to guest, guest to host) clipboard. It is enabled by default:
