Change Kali Linux screen resolution on Hyper-V Virtual Machine

By default you cannot change the Kali Linux resolution out of the settings menu when running on a Hyper-V Virtual Machine.

To change the resolution:
1. Open a terminal session
2. Run the command: sudo vi /etc/default/grub
3. Scroll down to the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=”quiet” and press the [i] Key to enable the Insert function on Vi editor
4. Change the resolution configuration for the Hyper-V Video Synthetic driver with the following: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=”quiet splash video=hyperv_fb:1920×1080″
5. Write changes and quit Vi: Press the Esc Key Type :wq
6. Update the Grub configuration by running the command: sudo update-grub
7. Reboot the virtual machine restart

When you go to login to Kali Linux it will still have the default resolution but once you have logged into the operating system it will refresh and open in your new resolution.
