Enable Enhanced Session for Pop!_OS or Ubuntu 20.04+ | Hyper-V Guide

After setting up your Pop!_OS Hyper-V Virtual Machine, you may want a smoother experience, with adjustable resolution and other niceties that you get from virtualising Windows in Hyper-V. Well, this video shows you how to install the tools required to Copy and Paste between Pop!_OS and Ubuntu 20.04+ in Hyper-V, with these modified scripts. (The original Microsoft ones don’t work, and they suggest just install it using the Quick Create on Hyper-V – Which doesn’t support Pop!_OS, or use the WSL).
