Hello,

I am experiencing an issue with Hyper-V on Windows 2025. When I launch a virtual machine running Debian or Ubuntu, I cannot type anything using my keyboard in the Hyper-V console.

I have tested both Generation 1 and Generation 2 VMs, but the problem persists. The mouse works fine, but no keyboard input is recognized.

I have checked several things:

  • The keyboard works correctly on the host machine.
  • The keyboard layout is properly configured in the VM.
  • I have tried enabling and disabling the "Enhanced Session Mode" option.
  • I have tested different versions of Ubuntu and Debian, with the same result.

Has anyone encountered this issue before, or does anyone have a possible solution?

Thanks in advance for your help!
