Hello,
I installed Windows 10 Pro completely new and installed all updates.
Afterwards I enabeled hyper-v and installed Windows 10 Pro as a new guest.

The normal mode works, I can login and windows is works correct.
However when I switch to enhance mode the login screen is blurred and no login is presented.

    1. On the menu of the Hyper-V's Virtual Machine Connection window select View and deselect Enhanced Mode Session. This will bring the password sign-in box back.
    2. Log in as usual.
    3. On Windows Settings \ Accounts \ Sign-in option, turn off Require Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts.
    4. That's all. No step four!

    I recently read another forum post on this subject and personally found that disabling Windows Hello on the VM did the trick for some reason.

    Like Mitchell pointed out 'Windows Hello' is the culprit. Enhanced Session relies on Remote Desktop Protocol(RDP) and that does not understand Windows Hello.

    Thank you @SaoSilvestre for posting the fix:
    Windows 11 Start> Settings> Accounts> Sign-in options> (Turn Off) For improved security, only allow Windows Hello sign-in for Microsoft accounts on this device

    Turned off Windows Hello and this fixed it for me too, reported to the W11 feedback hub
