Input Focus and Virtual CEPC (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

When you click inside the Virtual PC window, (as shown in the figure below), Virtual PC transfers your keyboard and mouse focus to the virtual machine that is running Virtual CEPC. When you move the mouse pointer outside of the virtual CEPC desktop, Virtual PC automatically transfers keyboard and mouse focus back to your host computer’s desktop. In some cases, you may have to use a key combination to release keyboard and mouse focus back to your host computer, as shown in the following table (choose the key combination for your version of Virtual PC).
