Hyper-V to VMware

[nlel1975]

I've been using a Hyper-V Windows 10 install for ages, tried Windows 11 and once I got it installed I couldn't set the resolution above 1920 x 1080 and I had no sound either. I've been using VMware Fusion on my Mac for awhile now so decided to try VMware Workstation which is the Windows equivalent.

My my so much easier to install, once you've installed VMtools everything just works. I have it set to 3840 x 2160 with 125% scaling and I have sound too. So I've deleted my Windows 10 Hyper-V install and removed Hyper-V completely from the system.

Yeah I knew there must be someway to get Windows 11 on Hyper-V working, I just couldn’t be bothered messing about with it especially when my Windows 10 Hyper-V VM worked straight out of the box.

So I installed VMware workstation and that just works.
