how can I copy files between my hyper V server and the virtual machines ?

Question

those of you used to Microsoft Virtual PC will find it odd that you can no longer drag and drop files from your desktop to the virtual machine in Hyper V, but all is not lost, you can copy/paste files to/from the Virtual machine by using standard network sharing,

 

in the screenshot below I first connected to my virtual machine using Windows Explorer and browsed to the C$ share on the virtual machine, i then dragged a file from my desktop to that share, and you can see the file is present locally on the virtual machine which is also shown on the desktop (to the right)

 

 

f.y.i

If you are using a Private network without having a network available with your host (or you don't want to have a network with you host), then you can create a folder with the content you want and use a convertprogram like Folder2Iso to make an Iso with the content of this folder and mount this through the DVD
