How can I enable my GPU on Hyper-V? I have created a new virtual machine using Hyper-V Quick Create for Windows 10 MSIX packaging environment, but my GTX 1650 laptop GPU doesn't appear in Task Manager. I have found several methods to activate it online, but they are all different and very old. I would like to know how I can activate my GPU on Hyper-V.

My operating system is Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2.

    Hi Felizberto Macedo,

    Thank you for posting in Q&A.

    If you want to use the GPU in a virtual machine, you need to pass through the GPU to the VM using Discrete Device Assignment (DDA). Please follow this guide.
