Tried seeking through parrotsec documentations but couldn't find any reference.

Found a solution.

Since Parrot OS is using Debian, I just tried to modify the Grub Setting by adding video=hyperv_fb:1440x900

nano /etc/default/grub

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=hyperv_fb:1440x900"

CTRL x + Y + Enter

sudo update-grub

sudo reboot

Then works as expected now. Thanks!

Another option I found is to enable enhanced session mode on Hyper V. On host run in powershell:

Set-VM "YourVMName" -EnhancedSessionTransportType HVSocket

On guest parrot os I used this script:

Bonus is clipboard between host and guest also works after this.
