Hyper-v - Copy Text Inside Vm & Paste Text to Workstation (Outside of Hyper-V) Text Editor?

I just migrated from VMWare to Hyper-V because of Docker.

Then I noticed I cannot copy the text inside Hyper-V VM & paste this text to workstation text editor (outside of Hyper-V VM)?

So, I did the google search & most answer I found are, the other way around (workstation to hyper-v) but not this way I mentioned above.

So, how does this work? Suggested Google links?

Windows 7

[Hyper-V VM #2] - Works

Windows 10, Version (02/2020 Windows Update)

Do you have enhanced mode enabled?

Before you connect, click on "Show Options":

Enhanced Mode supports fully integrated, bidirectional (host to guest, guest to host) clipboard. It is enabled by default:
