After updating from 1803 to 1809, I am no longer able to connect to NEW VMs I create using the Hyper-V Manager.  However, all my my VM's that were created before the upgrade still work as before.

 

I noticed that in the VM settings dialog, RemoteFx 3D  Video Adapter is now grayed out with the notice:

 

"We no longer support the RemoteFX 3D video adapter.  you can keep using this adapter on existing VMs, but you can't apply it to any new VMs."

 

While I am not using RemoteFx, I am curious if the deprecation has broken the Hyper-V Manager Virtual Machine Connection ability.

    They appear to have fixed it and should be available in next updates.
    Connected through console in the Insider build and it worked as before.

      I ended up performing a clean install of 1809 and it was working for a few weeks on my existing VM's. All of a sudden, I hit the exact same issue again.

      I migrated away from Hyper-V to VMware workstation in the end.
      Glad to see they identified the issue and will be fixed in a future release.
