I exported VM to local workstation, access it by Hyper-V
When I design a new form in Visual Studio, the preview pane shows nothing.
But when I access another VM by Remote Desktop Connection, the preview pane works well without any extra operation or setting.
I restarted the AOSservice several times, and Visual Studio is up to date as well.
Does anyone know how it happens, and how to resolve it?
Thanks.

P.S.: I tried methods mentioned in above two links, but helpless :(.
Hi André,
Thank you so much for your detailed explanation. That's really helpful.
My VMs exported to local workstation are both cloud hosted DEV VMs.
I think that's the point. I shall apply for a "OneBox" VM then.
Warm regards.

Hi Kai,
Yes, there is a difference between them. The local VHD is containing Azure emulators for several services which are not installed on a cloud hosted DEV VM. To be able to have this preview working correctly, you would need to download a "OneBox" VM from the LCS asset library containing the correct configurations and setup.
Hi André,
Sorry for late reply.
It was a cloud hosted DEV VM, and other team help me to export it to a VHD.
Is there any difference between them?
Warm regards.

Hi Kai,
You mentioned that you exported a VM to a local workstation. What was the original topology of this VM? Was it a cloud hosted DEV VM or already a local VHD?
Thank you for your suggestions.
This happened since I export the VM to local desktop one month ago (I didn't realize this until I need to create a new form XD).
The VM and Visual Studio restarted several times, the local desktop did as well.
I will try your last suggestion. Hope it works.
Anyway, thank you for your kindly help.
Warm regards.

Hi,
Did you restart the entire VM as well ?
In the VHD itself, click restart. When the VM is back, give it fee minutes before opening VS.
If this still does not work , download a new VHD from LCS.
