Scenario:

  1. Connect to VM using vmconnect (Hyper-V Connection)
  2. Start a powershell form cmd window
  3. copy and paste clipboard below text from HOST to guest (Clipboard->Type Clipboard Text) will see that carriage return (or) ENTER key (or) line break is recognized by the powershell instead line break will be showed as ^MM.

Though there are number of ways to get around to it; it just does not work as expected causing bit of delay in the flow/speed of getting things done.

More tests done:
CMD.exe prompt from the same VM could successfully identify carriage returns.
