## Change the display resolution for a Hyper-V VM

```powershell
set-vmvideo -vmname <your_vm_name> `
  -horizontalresolution:1920  `
  -verticalresolution:1080 `
  -resolutiontype single
```

- This _should_ enhance the graphics performance

  ```powershell
  Set-VM -VMName <your_vm_name>  -EnhancedSessionTransportType HvSocket
  ```
