Not having enhanced session mode turned on may pose a security and privacy risk. If a user is connected and logged on to a virtual machine through VMConnect and another authorized user connects to the same virtual machine, the session will be taken over by the second user and the first user will lose the session. The second user will be able to view the first user's desktop, documents, and applications.

- Turn on/turn off integration services from the Hyper-V host
- Turn on/turn off integration services from a Windows virtual machine
- Turn on/turn off integration services from a Linux virtual machine
- Keep integration services updated for the virtual machine
For hosts that run Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2, see Integration Services.
