These are the virtual machines that will be used in this course.
As part of the classroom setup, you should configure Hyper-V to pass-through Windows key combinations. This makes it much easier to move around the user interface in Windows Server 2012 which has been designed with the assumption that the user will use keyboard shortcuts. Verify that this setting is configured with students on their computers:
On the host computer, open Hyper-V Manager.
Right-click the host computer in Hyper-V Manager, and then click Hyper-V Settings.
Under User, click Keyboard, click Use on the virtual computer, and then click OK.
Open a virtual machine and demonstrate the following:
How to sign in
Administrative Tools are now in the Tools menu of Server Manager
Pointing the mouse at the lower-right corner of the screen provides access to:
Settings: This includes Control Panel and Power
Start screen: Access to some applications (note that you can start typing on this screen to start searching)
Search: Search results are filtered by Apps, Settings, and Files
Shortcut keys:
