@jimmy9008 tbh I've not tested it for 3-4 yrs, but just found it bloated and always had issues remote managing it from laptop/desktop.
Should really give it another go with 2016.
3-4 years ago you had 5Nine available for free. So it was easier.
5Nine still has a free version. I have used it recently. I had no AD, so I used it to get my first AD machine up and running
They do? They even told me directly that they did not.
Yes, they do I made a post about it
and it is still working after 14 days of trial. Up to 6 VMs and 1 host.That's not really free then. That's gimped... basically useless in any non-test or non-lab environment.

Correct, like many “free” technologies there is always a catch, at some point not everything can be run on the free. -

You can try using "Project Honolulu" for your management purposes. It's almost a "single pain in the ass" management console that has nothing to do with management itself but rather a configuration tool (basically various MMC snap-ins, Control Panel, Server Manager and so on brought to web) for windows. But it will solve your issues at current stage for sure.

At least you get 5 VMs, but the 5Nines gives you 6..

I'll bring it back around and say that now that I've gotten past the couple of annoying obstacles with Hyper-V and remote management, Hyper-V is freaking awesome. It seems lightning fast.

The annoying thing for me is the versioning needed to manage hyper-v. Example: For Hyper-V 2016 you need a windows 10 machine to manage it.

No you don't.
You can pay for stuff to manage it, but I mean it doesn't automatically allow that

I used Hyper-V 2016 with Win7 RSAT before I loaded Win10.

Unless they changed it to make it not work since I've used Windows 7, I assumed you still could.
