Don't deal with Linux or hyper-v much but good to know.


Linux!! My new fave OS 😂 I wasn’t aware you couldn’t do restores without Int Svcs on HV. You can if Tools isn’t installed in VMW. I learned something today. 😊


Hi @CarySun! Good to know, thanks for your job and sharing with us 👍


Thank for sharing these steps @CarySun! BTW guys, remember to replace the ubuntu2310 with your own VMName, and not just copy ad paste the command -:)


Thank you @CarySun for your amazing effort


Great info….I think Hyper-V might start making a comeback….
