We are going to edit this file using notepad, and add some screen properties. The rdp file is nothing more than a text file with key-value pairs. Very cool, congratulations, you are now using RDP to connect to your VM. Now click on ‘Save As’ and save the rdp file with the VM name in a folder that is convenient for you mine are in ‘My Documents’. Then I discovered that you can also enter the VM’s computer name into the name box. I used to use the VM’s IP address as the name, but because Hyper-V changes the IP pretty much every time that the host computer reboots, I was constantly updating the rdp file. Now open Remote Desktop Connection, and expand the options. Hyper-V Manager will go long times using the same IP address when restarting the same VM, and all of a sudden it will change it. Be aware that this IP address can change without any clear indication when or why. In the Networking tab, it shows the IP address of your VM. At the bottom, you will see a screen part with three tabs. You’ll use this to create an rdp file for each of your VMsīack on the host – open Hyper-V Manager and select your VM.
