I wanted to run MongoDB and Compass on a Ubuntu OS. So I turned on the Hyper-V feature on my Win11 Pro laptop, and installed Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, MongoDB, and Compass. While they run better on Hyper-V than Virtualbox, I cannot resize the Ubuntu window on Hyper-V. This is an important feature for me that I am able to resize the window.

I found some old articles online about resizing Ubuntu VM window on Hyper-V. But they talked about using PowerShell to change the window sizes. I am wondering if it is possible to drag the edges of the windows to resize? It is really inconvenient to shutdown the VM so that one can resize the VM window size using PowerShell commands.
