    Manually installing the Integration Services resolved this issue for me.
    I downloaded the iso from here:
    https://archive.org/download/Hyper-V_vmguest/vmguest.iso
    Just point the virtual machine disk drive at the iso then run the setup

    The issue of the mouse direction being inverted (e.g., moving up when you move it down and vice versa) within a virtual machine running on Hyper-V in Windows 11 Home Edition is likely caused by a misconfiguration or missing components related to the Integration Services or display/input drivers. This problem can occur after updates, as they may disrupt the interaction between the host system and the virtual machine.

    Below is a step-by-step guide to resolve this issue:

    Verify Integration Services Installation

    Hyper-V Integration Services are essential for ensuring proper communication between the host system and guest operating systems. These services include optimized drivers for input devices like your mouse.

    Check if Integration Services are Installed:

    • Open the Hyper-V Manager.
      • Select your virtual machine from the list.
        • Right-click on it and choose “Settings.”
          • Under “Integration Services,” ensure that all options (such as Guest Services, Input Synchronization, etc.) are enabled.

    Manually Install Integration Services: If these services are not installed or functioning properly, you can manually install them:

    • Download the vmguest.iso file containing Integration Services from this link.
    • Attach this ISO file to your virtual machine:
      - Go to “Settings” for your virtual machine.
      
            - Under “DVD Drive,” select “Image File” and browse to the downloaded ISO.
      
            - Boot into your virtual machine and run the setup file from the mounted ISO to install or repair Integration Services.
      
    1. Restart both your host system and virtual machine after installation.
